It can't seem to find the remote. I thought I had seen somewhere that the US version does not support the remote.

Yes as far as I know you need to use the rockbox tool to change destination code to E to get the remote support

You're right! US version doesn't support BT remote

Damm *&#*&&@##??
How does that make sense for the US market?

Thanks, I will.

NC8000,

Thanks, I will.

I have an EU unit and have changed to E and have the remote support in the settings but have not got the remote so dont know if it actually works

Sad, isn't it ? Un-cap it

I really hope WM1 series receives the USB-DAC functionality. Since they're also adding aptX and MQA support to the WM1, I suppose USB-DAC would also make it into the next firmware.

Is this likely? If so I will get the 1A for certain.

Have anyone tried this Kimber Sony balanced cable with the WM1Z or WM1A?
Thanks

No problem thank you, that does give much insight to what I was wondering. I may end up wanting to sell the mojo for a WM1A soon and just wait for some black Friday sales.

Seems like an end game DAP.

This was exactly what I did earlier this year lol.

I honestly have no idea. Don't gamble and just wait for a few weeks to find out. Plus the ZX300 won't come out for some time yet,

Woa, 2 owners of the SA5000 is in this thread. Let me join too !! Mine is balanced and damn...it is good!

I got it recabled to balanced per your recommendation actually. Was a really great upgrade. Currently pairing it with my ZH1ES and it's just amazing.

Can't wait to try it with the WM1Z.

I think he meant that by technical level, FT-Capacitors are better than OS-con, and F-Resistors are better than MLFE Resistors ?

Yes, and those are already what we agreed contributes to a different SQ, but not necessarily player performance?

I have the SE version for my Z1R, and the 4.4mm balanced one for my Z5, both used for the WM1A. They are smoother and a little warmer than the SPC ones since these are ofc.

I can confirm the remote works fine with an uncapped UK unit. The actual hardware is likely identical in all regions so once the software is enabled it will work.

No regrets whatsoever.

Pros: Amazing battery life, finally a touchscreen interface, no need to charge two devices on the go, no more stacking. Sound-wise, WM1A is more neutral with a bigger soundstage. Me likey.
Cons: Not the most economical of switches, plus the added expenses of balanced 4.4mm cables haha.

I waited for Chord to announce the Mojo accessory, hoping that it'd be a screen and UI capable of turning the Mojo into a fully functioning DAP. Pipe dream but yeah. Once Poly was announced, I said nope and sold the Mojo.
