For the iPhone 11 Pro, I’m ok with using th battery since Apple’s battery replacement program is pretty easy and straight forward without being too pricey. I actually treasure the 1A and 1Z WAY more than the 11 Pro. Those DAP’s are amazing for their audio output that I consider them my audio crown jewels

One test you can do Bluetooth from your 1A to the 1Z. Then Bluetooth from your phone to the 1Z while using the IER-Z1R and you’ll pick up the difference.

To me using a 1A or 1Z as a BT source is a waste and overkill

Which is why I will not do the BT route with the 1A and 1Z. I’m trying to get my priorities straight. Good point

So the 1Z receives the Bluetooth signal from the 1A and then then I output through the IER-Z1R. Makes sense. Sorry for giving everyone a headache. Every person has a different circumstance no matter what. But from I have read, I have seen no one else Complain about the clamp force and the weight of the MDR-Z1R and Z7M2 cause neck pain and dizziness because they compress so much. If someone can prove me otherwise, I would prefer that

If they cause that to you that’s what matter and means they just aren’t for you

Sad development, isn’t it? At least the IER-Z1R gets the job done wonderfully

Is the recording industry being affected by the COVI? I meant that for around this time.the'previews" from the BIS Series of CPE Bach the solo keyboard Music begin showing up, up to now no info on the vol. 40. Also Naive has promised the Vivaldi Concerti per Fagotto V, also nothing shows up

Everything is being impacted by COVID-19 across the globe, delays should be expected with many priorities changing...

There is 3.5mm balanced out there too, which will not work for your needs. Don’t think you can go balanced to single ended without damaging your player.

Don’t think you can plug 3.5mm single ended into that?

There is 3.5mm TRRS balanced connection, not common but my iFi xDSD had one (3.5mm single/balanced output), perhaps these are for the adapting 3.5mm balanced to 4.4mm? It does say 4 pole.

*apologies, I was scrolling down on my phone and quoted your post, then realised you said the same thing.

The 1A, 1Z and ZX2 (and perhaps others) have seperate ground (also known as pseudo balanced) on the 3.5 output

For convenience you can use Bluetooth and it may even sound very good, but after spending money to own high end daps you may want to maximise your music experience by getting the best you can which would be balanced out.
99% of the time I use balanced out of my WM1A but once in a while for convenience I use Bluetooth with my Fiio BTR5 and the quality is actually impressive and when commuting with external noise it may be OK - give it a go if it serves a purpose.

Stage10 for 1A is up! it seems many people here want to experience how NW-WM1Z sound like. It's not easy at all. Even this tune is not quite their yet.

Cheers!

Just experimenting, won't share stuff that is not stable/not working properly.

Is it updated? I still saw the stage 5 . I'm quite happy with Stage 5Z, not sure if it's better

Yes, should be more dynamic, better separation and warmer. You don't see Orion_S10A.exe in Orion/PC folder? Their is no 1Z yet.
