What headphones are you enjoying WM1A/Z most?

Used to be vega.
Now is u12 + m15 .

I am woed by SE but maybe in the few weeks i am moving to BALANCED, the fact im hearing details i never Heard before with S.E.  ist just cool. KUDOS TO SONY
 
Able to extract the room reverb cues and the tail deccay so natural wow.
 
Listening to a particular álbum of Mozart sonatas for 4 Hands (on a Clavessin), before WM1A is just Heard all cramped sound and a bunch of notes played, was always fatiguing
 
Listening it with WM1A is like these tracks have reborn, I never Heard a sound so analogue, so real, i can get an idea the sixe of the church it was recorded not too big not too small but with a decent amount of echo going arround, with no "blurring" of sounds (good attack and deccay)
 
I am willing to pay @whitigir a fortune for super duper express shipping these cables LOL

With WM1A i enjoyed older melodies, not sure why.

Also only the much expensive players that i starts enjoying instrumentals.

Just purchased my walkman from buywise via amazon. I purchased a z1r from them already brand spanking new Ill tell you what dont let the whole warranty thing or fake product thing bother you like it did with me a while back DO purchase a SQUARETRADE warranty they are absolutey amazing. They have repaired items of mine in the past not sold from authorized sellers LOL.. They have been amazing. So i will love saving a few hundred dollars and buy on amazon and would suggest others to do so as well. Its good business. Undercut competition and pay less. now back to my beer.

You are not saving even one single dollar if you're buying on Amazon USA. Their price is the same if not more than what you would pay at a dealership. Infact, you're paying more considering that squaretrade warranty. 1A is getting released here in a week's time. Enjoy your beer!!!

Yeah, squaretrade is good but it only works for products you buy on Amazon (what I heard from people). Next time, try your local dealers first before taking the Amazon route. I bought my Z1R from @tsavjason at an unbelievable price, brand new, sealed with USA warranty. Sorry, can't disclose the price here, but it was too good to be thinking of buying it anywhere else. And yes, upgrade those cables. I am using Axios for now but upgrading to a silver one very soon.

That is the nicest thing anyone has said to me on headfi LOL

Hmm interesting! Sound signature from direct source is actually different between 24 bits and 16 bits songs. On my WM1A, I adjusted EQ to match with how direct source sound in 24 bits tracks and when I try 16 bits tracks, EQ is no longer matched. Now I have 2 sets of EQ: one for Hi-Res and one for CD. LOL!

 

[Whitigir]

Look like u have a beat headphones LOL! All the bass, no mids and highs

I have tried KK. You can demo all the different types of cables at his store without the pressure of buying.
