The problem is you are doing exactly what tienbasse is talking about Whitigir.

Your closing comment was 'you should sell your LPG and move on to 1A if you can't afford 1Z. It is everything better.'

Unless you have done some extensive testing of the three devices, then this is a crazy comment to make.

Please try to remember that as a senior member on Head-fi, prospective new DAP buyers may take your comments very seriously and could even base part of their purchase decision upon it.

:beerchug:


I was wrong to listed the facts that WM is better than LPG , and call it out ? Well ok, it seems I can't even read the specs and look out for features. My apologies then, and did I mention about Sound quality wise the WM was better ? Where ? Since when do member need to extensively have all units to compare about features and spec wises ?

My strong comment was specially aimed toward the person I quoted, just because he mentioned that LPG has better play time and is more accurate in it listing than WM series. It was straight out wrong, so I listed a couple more facts for him to enjoy. Because of that my strong comment was aiming toward him and specs and features between the two DAP.

I need to go back to school and take reading/writing class again.

I was just pointing out that anyone can state facts and claim that makes the device better, for example;
 
1. The UI is far quicker on the Paw gold
2. The Paw gold is smaller and significantly lighter
3. The Paw gold has a parametric equalizer
4. The Paw gold is just over half the price
5. The Paw gold has a larger potential capacity, due to the use of full sized SD cards
 
Does that mean all 1Z owners should sell theirs and buy a Paw gold? probably not.

Neither, they are made in Malaysia

That's a shame...for such premium product, we would have hoped they are Japanese made but alas even their high end photographic gears are made in Thailand nowadays so this is not at all surprising

Where we can buy wm1a with international shipping now? Non capped version with english lang. Maybe asian online shop?


got mine from http://accessoryjack.com, still don't ship yet! (and it is out of stock already)
 
edit
 
I have asked them if there's a possibility that my order will ship before december 1, let's see what they answer

It's strange because the player in stock in Asia now.

why online stores dont sell it? In Russia its too expensive.. About 1600 doll


​I snatched it because they (accessoryJack) contacted me about a mini pre-order of two days, I had asked them previously if they wouls handle the WM1A and if when would be in stock
 
For me is strange because when the ZX100 came out, they had it almost inmediately in stock and when i ordered it, it shipped within a week.
 
Hope i get it before 12/01 as i travel to germany for leisure, as I promised my german friend i would share some of my music

Listening to some Korean jazz by Min Chae on the 1Z with the FitEar 335/Tralucent Uber Too cable.

Excellent stuff: those of you who are familiar with this singer will know she has dreamy and slightly husky vocals and her albums are well recorded. The timbre of the strings are spot on and there's a nice natural resonance and then decay when the guitar is plucked. There's a lovely sense of space. The cymbals have realistic decay. There's also a satisfying 3D roundness to the drums.

All in all a very enthralling listen. :)

Just a prelim folks but output impedance seems to clock out at 0.94 and 0.92 respectively.  So around 1 if we're trying to be conservative.


Thank you, this is great
