  Is the 1A better than ak 240 or 380 in sound quality? Is there anybody who can confirm that?


Only you can confirm if the 1A/Z sounds better to you, and what sounds better to YOU is what you should be focusing on.

  Here are the pictures of the case. I've put my 1A in it since it didn't have a case already, although I'll likely be swapping it for the 1Z soon. 
 
@jamato8 - I'd take a look at this one. Think I'll like it better than the case included with the 1Z.

IMO, the case that comes with the 1Z isn't much. It is cheap without much thought on the function. You can have it in the case with the top in place and charge it and the floppy top is cumbersome. It looks like a type of synthetic leather and most likely cost 2 or 3 dollars at the most.

I agree and would like a nice top grain stitched leather case, but the stock case does a pretty good job if you are using the remote. The only time I have to flip the top open is to change playlists or charge the battery, which isn't that often.

Wowsers! The new firmware really speeds things up.

  I have found the direct link:
http://walkman.update.sony.net/fw/pc/WM1/NW-WM1_V1_10.exe
 
Applying the update will take it from V1.02 to V1.10, so we've got a pretty big leap.
 
Yep huge speed improvement in scrolling speed and flicking between the different home screens. 

 
maybe this should be 1st post link along the vol-cap thing (and maybe with a heads up in the title) ?
 
too many pages and this will be lost in the sea of posts , both relevant and irrelevant
 
btw @nanaholic , your posts are by far the most helpful and clear-thinking posts in here , so kudos
 
ps : think i am finally ready to get the 1A , now let's wait for one to show for sale here

Completely agree. The stock case is an embarrassment. Spend $3k and that's what they give you? Absurd.

You have to download the update program from the link shared previously in this thread, not using mediaGo. Cheers

Thx Nanaholic! I just updated my WM1A to 1.10:grin:
Received my Therium 4.4mm balanced cable from Norne Audio today. Over all clarity has been improved, and the more important thing is the wire is very flexible (not like the Sony Kimber one)
