I powered it via the battery, and charged when necessary. I don't know if the resulting trickle charge of using the adapter constantly would have any impact on such a modern battery.

Exactly my concern on the battery lifespan if I ever do that. Hope to hear from the rest too. Cheers.

I charge when battery low.

But i burn in without charging, purely on the batt.

Now that is a treat
indeed sounds better than the standard z7 balanced cables, Inmediateley after plugging it in details were unearthed, sight if z5 had such a cable too (no Kimber) but like this for t he Z1R

I charge when battery low.

me too did this charge and on battery burn in, as now complete on both circuits

Balanced has made me realize that, 16/44.1 is not that bad after all, there are fine CD quality recordings

Ofcourse! Honestly, the only differences would be DSD and 16/44.1....anything in between.....all a can of worm. Hell, many people would call DSD differences being different mastering...etc....it is all a can of worm

Put up my Norne Audio ultrashort balanced adapter plug 2.5mm female to 4.4mm male on the classifieds.

Also put my Norne Therium 2pin ciems 4.4mm cable if anyone's looking for a balanced goodie. Especially considering the extensive waiting times x-D

Just got mine from Amazon. FYI: the firmware was 1.02, and the latest is is 1.20. Updating took only a few minutes. Plus, as noted earlier, the battery was barely charged. Formatted and filled a 200G microSD card, added more music to the built-in storage; it was very easy to copy files from my Mac using the Finder. And now it's off to the races...

Any recommendations for aftermarket cable to pair the Utopia's with the 1Z? I am looking at Kimber but interested to hear about other potential options
