Sound advice. Thank You. Perfectionism, a horrific perpetual self inflicted at times; misery. I'm guilty of it at times. Perhaps more, sometimes mostly. But.. aren't most of the folks here? Audibly ?

Character maybe? :)

Also the sound has character too?

I guess when someone gets their DAP and then they notice the marks?

It’s like.... what?

Still I have curiosity more. Like; why are they there....is it a result of some build process. Someone signed off on this, for all the players to be like this.......lol.

I’m used to them now.

Smooth ? Lol...everytime we insert a stick into a hole...we supposed to ask for a smooth entrants opening ? OK ! Deal!

Btw, that is not Sony fault....it is Pentaconn, and it is likely happening during transport of components. Those are very soft metals which is more likely to be dings and dent when knocked into something during transporting.

I also just realized that Sony newest Top tier , DMP-Z1 has 5X super capacitors....oh goodness! WM1Z has 1

I could only imagine how wonderful the R&D lab at Sony Audio division must be.

Anyone try a 1a/z with the Abyss Diana Phi? Abyss shows photos with the combo but many on Headfi are saying these need a desktop amp.

Actually there is a thing to do in order to correct this issue: I mean using a small and suitable flat head milling bit with blades on top and driven smoothly by hand. If you wish try this be aware to operate with the DAP in upside down position and the milling operation from the bottom in order to avoid metal particles go inside the earphone socket.

I have just received the card. Initial testing shows the card at least works when formatted by WM1A and with a single ALAC album. Will report performance after transferring 800GB overnight.

Since you are the only member to claim ownership of a 1tb card, please take a screen shot of your storage summary in the menu of you WM1A/Z and upload it. I want to see the screenshot, please.

Speaking of micro SD cards, Lexar brand sells the 512 gb to 75 €. Any experience with them?

I would assume that it is a fake at that price
