As of me - I'm staying with WM1A/Z+ on WM1A. Funny thing - ethnic music in other languages sounds better than music in (American/British) English. Kari Bremnes (Norway) or Osamu Kitajima (Japan) i.e.
Have you left it as 1A or have you used the model switcher to 1Z?
1A seems the best sound for me

Which one are you

Contradicting one of my last posts - I've switched back to 1A,= and, running 1A+ - and, I'll agree with others, this is really nice...Have you left it as 1A or have you used the model switcher to 1Z?
1A seems the best sound for me
Damn - fun that there are now so many options
Tried switching to 1Z, but it sounded less fancy. WM1A/Z+ is in my ears very similar to DMP-Z1 1.02 by Whitgir. Only better

Another converted.
Really, even french-lebanese songs (Touffic Farroukh) sounds much better than english ones. Mr Walkman - is this a secret power of this firmware to make English soundin' worse?

I had issues with the mids on DMP-Z1 1.02 but no such problems here
No problems also with hissing on multi-armature IEMs like Andromeda or dynamic ones like Xelento. No hiss on high gain. I'm using 3,5 mm jack now due to lack of balanced cable.

This was one of my early observations on one of the much earlier builds - there is still a noise floor - but, it is most definitely pushed further up the volume dial - that in itself is worth the price of admission (which, let's face it - is all of about 2 minutes sat in front of a PC, and a five minute database rebuild) alone, for multi ba / hyper sensitive IEMsSame no issue here with Andromeda and or DD/muti BA IEM's

Just a relaxed Sunday evening on my terrace with the new WM1A/Z+ firmware mod and a beautiful regional Craftbeer. Just great - both . I really love this modded firmware... No desire to change anything on my player.... MrWalkman, once again thank you very much!!!

Haha, thanks! It's the Auris19 from Riegele Brewery in Augsburg. It has 9% alcohol - for a Bavarian beer very strong (typically Bavarian beer has 4.5 to 6% depending on the sort..). Sweet and fruity tast... A slight tast of gratefruit and pineapple with a hop note... Great. But not cheap and not a beer for every day... Just for special moments! It was a birthday present from my neighbor a few months ago, and today with the new WM1A/Z+ mod it was the perfect moment...You know how to enjoy life
