Well I wait for early adopters lol report problems and will do the same for firmware updates
The A30 series is starting to look like a much better deal to me. It has the new HX Master amp that the WM series has. Power listed as 35 mW per chanel, same resolution touchscreen as the WM series. It even has DSD support if that floats your boat. Still excellent battery life, smaller internal memory but with Samsung releasing 256 GB microsd cards and 200 GB cards dropping in price no big deal anymore.
I think WM really means Waste of Money. I am retiring to the land of common sense. Good luck with your purchases, I hope you don't regret it, I know I won't
And I liked the sound of the zx100 more than that of the A17
A30?????are you joking????
Don't know what headphones did @Mark2010 use with both players, I used a pair of XBA-A3 when I had both. I cannot attest for Z5 as these fore are my new babies still burn in
you right about the "z" is very expensive, but, must be very good to, but Sony is not pointing a gun in your head for you to buy one , or is it? When i ask if that was a joke what i was thinking about the "A" version, now coming here on a hi-end tread talking about a A30 is like somebody talking about a Mercedes class S and somebody says that a classe A is betterWM-1Z are you freaking kidding me!!!!!!!!!!!!. See I can do it to and still have money left over buy food and stuff.:blink:
now I see, sennheiser "iBuds" mine are in-car triple driver perhaps that makes a difference in perceiving excuse me the redundancy differencesDon't know what headphones did [@=/u/134312/Mark2010]@Mark2010[/@] use with both players, I used a pair of XBA-A3 when I had both.

The headphones I use most of the time are the Sennheiser MX500.

Well they both play HiRes audio formats, the A30 series is made of aluminum, same resolution touchscreen, same version of S-Master HX amp. Both support DSD and both have the same version of bluetooth.
The A30 series and WM series are far similar than they are different, especially the 1A so to me the A30 has every right to be considered hi-end. I never suggested the A series was better, but a better deal for the money, absolutely any day of the week.
You are mistaken ... The A30 uses the older generation SMaster and has not balanced out....WM uses the newest SMaster
No native DSD, seems that's only available on the NW-WM1A/Z.
Also the HP out is rated at 35mW for the new NW-A30 series
