Did you get the chance to try out the WM1A/Z- based Walkman One firmware?

hi, just want to say that your Walkman One firmwares are absolutely amazing. I am using the Sony a55 now. Going to upgrade to the ZX300 soon.

Again, thank you so much for what you are doing. I adore your work and I can't thank you enough.

Will donate more once I get the zx300 and flash your MrW firmware

Or super size the battery and sound

Mind sharing more on how you supersized the battery? I am interested

I wish I could my friend, mine is still stock, I came across the interesting upgrades at the NPAudio forum.

I'll go look it up then. thanks bro!

you really should give it a try.

just flash the mrwalkmans one on my zx300, there is the additional volume bar on top and bit rate at top. I find differences on Warm, with bright and WM1Z, though bright and wm1z is quite similar not the same though. I haven't tried the neutral. but finding the warm a little bit drowning, in a good way.. i like it.

I'll keep it to WM1Z for now.

also i find the audio played counter is reset to zero when I flash the firmware. though I revert it back to stock and it goes back to previous counter. though i am thinking if I use the firmware for long time and racks up the time, it would revert to previous stock counter if i revert it back to stock.

Edit: I reverted back to stock. Not sure why, but i found missing detail on one of the sound setting when I listen to one of my music.. i'll try it again some other day as I forgot the song that I was playing.. just realize it when i revert it back to stock and relisten to some of the music i usually listen.. not sure if its even missing as I already forgot the actual song. hahaha

hey guys, anyone of you own Fiio L27 - TC

I wonder if this cable is compatible with other than Fiio products ??

I just got the L27-TC, now waiting for the my portable DAC to come and try. Btw, I have ordered Colorfly CDA M1. Will update again.

am I able to use zx300 in DAC mode via USB (Spotify on my PC) and listen through BT wf-1000xm4? It's not working.

it says "Unavailable during BT audio output". Just making sure. I would have thought this was doable..

i think dac will only work via wired headphone.
or you could connect zx300 to bluetooth source, then you still listen to wired headphone.

I don’t think ZX300 supports that but I may be wrong

Doubt it's doable, although I've never tried. A DAP surely can't be in two different output modes simultaneously?, In this case, DAC and BT.

I've paired my zx300 with my phone before now in BT receiver mode to test listen to Deezer streamed from my phone. That works fine if using wired on the zx300, but if I also try to pair my TWS at the same time to listen, it can't be done all the while the zx300 is in BT receiver mode. That makes sense.

A different example to yours, but I think the principle remains the same, about not being able to use two different output modes at the same time.

That stinks. these days I much prefer wireless earphones than any headphone..convenience/comfort at the cost of SQ

But it's just physics isn't it? I can't see how any DAP, zx300 or otherwise, can be capable of outputting two different modes simultaneously. It's just not possible in my mind, although I could be wrong as I'm no expert in DAP'S. Perhaps someone will come along and correct me?

I just think of it in terms of a conventional hifi set up. Unless you're using a 2 channel or more mixer, you can only output one source at a time to your speakers from your amp. I can't listen to, say CD and Vinyl, at the same time. Not unless I connect the amp to the mixer.

if you'll be using bluetooth passthrough, i think it will be much better to connect the wireless headphone directly to the source (via bluetooth).. since you wont be getting any benefits by passing the sound via dac if it will be transmitted to bluetooth anyway.

This. Direct to the source would be best. The DAP's encoder (DAC) won't work if connected through BT. The chip of the BT headphone/earphone will be the encoder in this case AFAIK.
