So will my Ipad 10V charger work better than my iphone?

I can’t imagine that is a 10V, to my understanding the USB standard is 5V

With this talk of battery care what would be the best burn in method then please?

I connected mine to power and headphones at above normal listening and then random play during the day for about 2 weeks and listened every evening for 2-3 hours

With the talk of the battery, any impressions on the new firmwares so far?

Hey folks. Any recommendations on SD cards? I've got a high speed (3) 512GB on order, but a 1TB would be more comfortable given the size of my library. 1TB's tend to be pricey though, so I'd be looking for a slower transfer rate card.

User guide doesn't enlighten much...

Having a moment of lockdown infused insanity - can anyone comment on the pairing of WM1A and FiiO FH7?

I have the 1TB one and fits all my collection downsample to 16/44 (hi-res intact on 4TB hard drive)

Just a guess, chances of new WM1A in 2020 is 0%, 2021 is 10-15%, 2022 is 15%-20%. Well, you get the gist of it...

Realistically, I think with the world economy going down the drain now, maybe 2023, and given how slow Sony does things, more realistically maybe 2024 or 2025, if we are talking about WM1XXX successors. And besides, modded 1A/1Z is just so ahead that it would take huge discoveries and implementation on Sony part to comfortably come with worthy successors.

Put it this way, it makes more sense for the world to discover vaccine or cure to Covid19 much earlier than Sony to come out with successor to 1A/1Z

Perhaps.. but there was a big purge of the hi-res audio kit from Sony UK in 2018, raising hopes of a successor. Two years down the line, still nothing whilst no stock of 1A or 1Z units. Either they are stopping this line or there is/was something in the pipileline. Obvious supply lines being affected.
