Definitely better than what I'm getting running balanced through jomo samba and some other easy to run IEM.

I have some other EQ settings on though

No EQ settings for me, but I do use the screen on about 70% brightness after each album. Had I just let it play continuously with the dark screen I probably would have gotten another hour or two out of it.

Never thought I'd see the day this would happen :scream::scream:
Geez, hopefully he doesn't regret it, dang!, what a bold decision. Wondering how he will cope at work to avoid boredom, i am a software developer and hell sitting at the computer with no music is HELL :p

Hoffentlich enttäuscht er nicht --> Practicing a bit German :D

Just curious, seems Sony is on a 2 years product life for a major change, any rumours that there will be a signature series replacement layer this year?
If you have been following the thread, there were many talks about about a anniversary edition, although a rumor, many of us hope this is true.:blush:

Didn’t catch that! I hope they got a wm1a successor which is pretty neutral tone and not sure if android will be possible, fingers crossed for it to not be a special colour version only

Well it’s not about the gear, but the musical life experiences in the end. We obsess on the gear, but......if the equipment didn’t do anything special.......

I figure he needs some funds to make other purchases on his quest to audiophile enlightenment......bigger fish to fry! Lol.

Yes, very true. I struggled for a little and I found a breaking point to commit a full blown desktop setup. Here is a shot of what is 80% done. Still waiting on the bridge for I2S.

You are looking at a high-end desktop streamer server with the newest technology

I almost never sell anything, but it’s probably best from a practical standpoint to sell stuff while it’s at peak value. Especially if your dreaming about new gear. Good luck on your quest, and congratulations getting the courage to move forward.

I forgot to mention that I use battery saver function. I was actually closer to 23 hours, considering this.
