Is there anywhere in the EU that sells these at a reasonable price. Amazon has listed above list price in the UK. I wonder if the wm1z is being phased out..
Check on the Sony UK web site - that'll be the list price, and anything below it is discounted.
As for auditioning, you live in the UK and are therefore covered under the distance selling regulations. If ever there was a reason to make use of the DSR, buying a DAP blind would be one. Folk in other countries don't always have access to such consumer protection; take full advantage of one of the few things wethat protection have got right in this country. For all of the DAPs I have bought over the last four years, I was prepared to send each one back under DSR if it didn't match up to my expectations. In the end, each one did so I only sold each one on when I had moved onto something else.
It will be difficult to audition both side by side. Most retailers who sell the WM1z offer a 30 day risk free return. For the US, Musicteck sells the N8 but will charge a stocking fee if you return.

Thanks for this, I did check in the other thread to see if the N8 had hiss in the SE Tube mode, and I was told it was dead quiet with the Solaris. This review highlights the Andro's having hiss in the SE Tube mode!
I shall hang back and wait for a deal on the wm1z in the forums, or till Amazon drops the price. Have any of you used AcessoryJack? Are they reliable?
What model do you suggest from them? I know Pinky has a copper one. To tell you the truth for the last year I wanted to warm them up. But now I like the sound the way it is, only it’s not balanced. My 4.4 Pentacon purchase of the Hansound Zen 4 wire actually dropped out some of the low end becoming unusable. I was actually thinking of having the stock cable re-terminated to 4.4mm. Your plus sound is better sounding than stock? Which model?

I bought x series with silver plated cooper which is a reasonable priced cable...
I have Kimber axios cu for my utopia but I don’t see my self spending big money for İem cables....
I like cables thin with my iems
They sound fantastic and very well made

Does anyone know when a likely time is to announce the new 40th anniversary Walkman? It would be ridiculous if Sony showed the NW-WM1A again (no matter how good it is) for the 3rd year at the AV Bristol show in February. My NW-ZX1 was announced in the fall of 2013, so it's got to be soon.

Whilst it is connected close the apps you want to use and reopen them. Also make sure that the setting on the player to charge during USB DAC mode is turned off
