That's what I thought. i'm confused about what happened then. I'm deleting all the files and starting over. I have been having issues with my cover.jpg files not showing for some albums (I think it's an interlacing problem).

Ok. The fresh transfer directly through the finder to the [music] folder worked. I’m still having trouble with the cover art not showing. Next problem to solve. At some point I’ll get to listening to music. Lol

Sony don’t like progressive jpg only baseline. Progressive worked fine on their Android based players though

That’s what I figured based on my reading. Now I need to figure out how to batch convert all my cover art from progressive to baseline... anyone on a Mac have any ideas? I can use windows or Linux, too, but I’d prefer to use the Mac.

Finally got to hear some difference between DC phase linearizer OFF vs ON, the bass more tight and punchier and more runbly, more warm sound.


also using DSEE strings, these two settings give a nice more holographic sound too (recording too has this kind of feeling so it expands it beyond "out of head" experience), Philips Mozart edition is better than the new 225 from Deutsche gramophon in terms of SQ and mastering quality (i kept some discs from the DG edition but not that many, only new pieces or alternative performances i often sought)

Wow I have the Mozart 225 edition, it sounds so sweet on the Sony WM1Z. Yes turning EQ on using all the settings upscales the music to sound better. But it can also depend on how it’s mastered. The Bonnie Tyler remixes & rarities is an bright recording. Not even EQ turned on helps to tone down the treble sparkle. Rock music is the most difficult to EQ correctly

A transportable all-in-one DAC/player sounds interesting, if only to see what Sony manages to crams inside it as extreme miniaturisation of components that is never been done before is usually what justifies Sony's price tag for the most part.

70,000 Chinese Yuan equals
11,140.85 US Dollar

Wonder if Sony makes you buy your own headphones for it?

If you are asking that question then this isn't for you, obviously.

It's like asking if Chord makes you buy your own headphones for the Chord Dave (which is about 11000 dollars as well).
