I don't think my ZX2 has even reached 100 hours even after 2 years:cowboy:
And WM1A maybe less than 20 hours.
Not getting enough time to listen

Are you kidding? At even 2 hours a day you need less than 2 months to reach 100 hours.

Just spent over 45 minutes with a higher level manager at Sony eSupport USA about the clicking sound when the WM1Z navigates to any track that differs in file type/format/sampling rates versus the previous.  When using the 4.4mm Balanced standard-jack connection.
 
Sony eSupport USA noted that others have reported this issue but it is not on the top of the firmware wish list.  Apparently, most use the 2.5mm Stereo mini-jack and the issue is not there. (I think this is odd, as the Balanced output is clearly superior....)
 
Please call Sony eSupport about this.  In the US, it's 239-245-6290 (Ask for eSupport)

I haven't noticed that yet, fortunately. I've only been using balanced for a few days though. I'll listen more carefully.

I would never experience that as I always play a whole album end to end and that would always be the same file format and resolution

This was also very apparent to me on my LPG (even though it only has SE) when i was switching between tracks of different file/sampling rates. 
 
One will never experience this if he/she just sticks to listening to any particular album. It is only when one decides to have a playlist of songs of different file/sampling rates.

This is not an issue.
It dont affect the playing of the song as it only happens before and after song.
It dont irritates your hearing like loud pop sound.
It happens on other brand DAP too.

While you're playing the track in balanced, navigate to a track that's of a different format.  Like DSD128 to 44.1K, etc.

It's been answered many times, it's not an issue or bug but it's there by design. There's nothing to fix so don't call Sony.

True Balanced out means L+ L- R+ R-, and SE mean L+ R+ LR- . The configurations on 2.5mm balanced from A&K and other devices are all Solid state and Op-Amp....none of them using Class D configuration like Sony Walkman.

The Walkman has 4 inverters coils, and each is dedicated to a single line of signals for processing. By combining the Negative polarity on L and R Channels, you are shorting both Inverter together.

I am not sure how viable the 2.5mm balanced into SE is considered a good approach, however, in my opinions, if they were meant to be separated, then let them be
