I have to agree about the sound being more warm. Coming from 1.2 (which had tons of bass) I was very skeptical, but there's still way more bass than 3.0 and the treble is not as sharp to my ears anymore.

So, 1.20 still the best?
Haven't upgraded yet.

it seemed to me he meant, if you change it to JPN region, that's the only language available on the device

Ah, my bad. I misunderstood.

I liked 1.20 in the past, then 2.0 a bit more but switching between them, 3.01 is my clear favourite now.

Sound in 3.01 was definitely tuned for the better to my ears. More analogue, vinyl like but with great soundstage and detail.

Correct, apologies if there was any ambiguity there...

What cannot be confused is how much quicker the database creation is on 3.01fw - much improved

Yes you can see the hours in Settings then scroll right down to Unit Information. The uncap is reversible. I have no idea if it voids the warranty

Can confirm after changing from J to E region with no loss in hours played under Unit Information

and how crazy fast was sony to fix this? that is a very good sign

It stays until you factory reset the player to swap it to the zone... for those with a cap, they have to reset for it to stick, for those where the cap doesn’t apply, they are okay, I moved from J to E after my crazy mess up, but have never reset as all I needed was the language option to pop up

I never had to do a factory reset after region change on my UK 1Z and have never heard of any who have done it

Strange, it mentions in the instructions twice in big scary red text that this needs to be done.

No harm done either way

It certainly does, I just don’t remember doing it, but then again it has been nearly 2 years since I did the region change so I might just have forgotten that I did it

Sometimes I forget 5 minutes ago, so don't feel bad. LOL

just got my wm1a on 1.2 and im not sure what im doing wrong. it came with a card (fat 32) with music on it, but 1a reads sd card no songs (0). i put more music on and same thing. i then take a different card out of my hiby, it bulids the data base for a while, and same thing, no songs

Music must be inside a folder called music on the root to be read

Hi all,

Need some assistance please.
In order for 1Z to be a Source to an external DAC, one must buy a cradle? Output of this cradle has Sony ip USB ONLY? Or some other different connector too?
I have the Sony special USB adapter during the 1Z purchased, but I don't know how or what to use it for.

And this cradle to be purchased, where? Not Amazon USA the last time I checked.

Thank you for your time to respond to my questions.
