I just realised that in firmware 2., If checked `Disable touch panel when HOLD switch is on,
The buttons on the player side are all disable too.
If I'm not wrong, in the 1.2 only the touchscreen is disable...
CAn someone who are still on 1.2 kindly confirm this.

When the hold swith is on the buttons are disabled which is the whole point of the switch. If you then check the touch screen option the hold switch also disables the touch screen

Glad that I didn't penny pinch in finding the right eartips after going all out on my 1Z/ Z5 setup. The difference they make in fit and their effect on sound for me personally is huge. Wasn't impressed with Sony's own offerings incl EP-TC50,Comply,Spinfit etc.but very pleased with the JVC spiral dots:)

Yes it is all about seal.

You can reset the remote pairing by Holding "play/pause" + "Vol -" for 10secs.

With "Hold" switched off that is.

You will see flashing alternating Red and Blue lights which is pairing.

You're an absolute lifesaver. I discarded my box/paperwork; so I totally forgot the steps when it came to pairing it with my ZX300!
Thank you, crisis averted!

The 1Z/Z5 combo is amazing with the right tips. The Z5 is still kind of an untalked about flagship considering how many reviews you see. Though in this thread you have more people into Sony, so there are more Z5s around. But the match IS stellar!

I am using Acoustune HS1551 CU with WM1A.
DD type IEM. Absolutely good.

Barely started burning in the 1Z, but very impressed so far through the balanced output! Sounds like I might be in the minority regarding the degree of difference between the jacks, but the balanced is significantly better than single ended in regard to staging and detail. Single ended sounds almost like it is playing in mono. IMO.

Hmmm, sound logical. So I must have got it wrong on how it should function in the 1st place. Anyway, I personally prefer it on the 1.2 firmware..

I was going to pull the trigger on a pair of MDR-Z1R but eye doctor told me cataract surgery: IMPORTANT ASAP.. so, MDR-Z1R post-poned

If i get eventually the Z1R, I will not sell MY MDR-Z7, because they are good HPs and because i think i can't get a good re-sell value, but most important i love the Z7s as hell, solid construction

All my cd’s ripped to flac 16/44 and all my hires downsampled to flac 16/44 or 16/48 just fits on the 1Z with a 400GB microSD card. About 2.300 albums. Should keep me happy for a very long time.
