Select GENRE from main screen, select the genre you would like to play, than select ALL and play any song will put all songs in that genre in one playlist
What really baffles me is how people remember the sound difference between hour 500 to hour 100 to 200. That is 300 to 400 hundred hours ago. Even at ten hours a day that would be over a months ago and research has shown that our music memory is about 20 seconds. On top of that the reported changes are suppose to be minute and not like night and day.

What entertains me more is the fact Sony themselves only mention the devices needing 200 hours for the components to settle in, but now we have dozens of people quoting this magical 500 hours.
@PCheung you have wired phones and the Bluetooth on? that doesn't affect battery life? i have my BT off to save some juice , even NFC i know that's a passive RFID Tag but of the case it emits some signal i also have it to off and also the remote function to off

I leave the Bluetooth on all the time (for the remote). I still get 3 days between charges, so the impact on the battery can't be that big. I never use NFC, so it is always off.

Been using xba z5 with 1A on balance ( sony kimber cable ). Change my tips for z5 to comply tx200, the ones with the waxguard cause the sony hybrid itching my ears, but as mentioned earlier in these threads there seems to be a slight deterioration in trebles..I felt that too..Understand that there's a suggestion to use the comply tips backwards, but guess won't work with the tips with waxguard.
Hope there are other tips to try out.I would welcome other suggestions or recommendations...
To be honest i stopped hearing changes or refinements at 490h it is stable now... now if i get a job the first purchase i will do is the 4.4mm cable adapter and Buurrrnnn baby burrrrnnn again

Shhhhhh, Ok we will just keep this as a secret between us then .
To keep this discussion on topic, I was recently asked about my thought on the 1Z and the 380cu and as most of us have done this with our gears, I put my 1Z and my 380cu side by side, select a song that is an exact copy and put it on both players, and use the same iems/cable and SE out. I find myself had to do not just AB, but ABAB and sometimes even ABABAB on only a 30 seconds passage. My point is that to look that deeply into music and confirm changes are actually there even within a matter of a minute or two, I had to go back and forth to confirm if there is any difference between the two players two to three times within a minute or two let alone a month ago. And that is with two different players with different DAC and all other electronic components let alone discerning differences on the same player with exactly the same electronic components. I am not saying there is or there is not changes happening objectively but at that point I don't know if we could tell whether that is actual sound changes or sound perception changes.
one curious thing i have realized and bafles me a lot ...
My previous walkmans A818, E507, X1060 didn't note any burn in changes at all, they sounded the same, the iPod classic the same no changes the fiio x3 first gen also no burn in changes at all. I started hearing burn in changes with my first H-res capable walkman, the A17, then zx100 and now this WM1A
why id din't hear changes from burn-in in the past before my A10 series?
Actually, the old fashion way of tuning a piano or guitar by ear (currently, dedicated tuners and software are used) has nothing to do with memory. It is all based on comparison. On a guitar, tuning is done by comparing fretted notes with open strings. On a piano, tuning is done by comparing 2 struck notes and counting beats. This is all a moot point though, as today's modern tuners and software are much more accurate and have made tuning by ear inferior. BTW, the reason that tuning references (tuning forks, pitch pipes, etc.) were created is because people cannot accurately remember the pitch of a note for very long. I can remember the pitch of a note for several minutes, as long as nothing distracting pops in my head.
Using a tuning fork for piano and for guitar using a tuning fork or a note on a piano to set one of the string and then use that string to tune the other five strings. Better yet play a harmonic note on two strings and while the sound echo at the same time one can compare both string in vivo. Either way the tuning of piano and guitar do not rely on memory. Have both instruments all my life play them both and tune the guitar thousand of times but still have to rely on simultaneous comparison and not from memory.
