Isn't that a longish cable and difficult if using with a phone on the move?

It's alright not too long, but you might wanna buy a custom short on if you wanna strap them together.

That's exactly what i meant. A custom cable. Most of them are insanely expensive though.

But that's the simplest way to work with a PC

for phone, may try with this "WMP-NWM10" adapter + a OTG cable
not 100% proven, but worked with my Xperia X performance and "Music Center" apps

BTW, walkman do have another cable "WMC-NWC10"
it marks "power transfer cable" for you to use your walkman as power bank
don't know if it can work as an OTG and apply the USB-DAC functions with phones

Nice! Are you still selling your second one?

Probably, but the 2nd one is coming from Amazon China and has not even shipped yet.

 

[TenderTendon]

how much did this cost you from sony china...how does it sound?..

It was approximately $450USD + shipping from my friend in China to me. Haven't had a chance to listen yet. Just returned from vacation and need to get caught up on things.

Edit: That price included the Sony leather case...

Accessoryjack opened preorder again and they will ship it out in 14 days from today, people how already placed preorder about 2 weeks ago will get higher priority and people who bought them with express shipping will get them shipped out on the day they get them

God damn it, I'm away from home now with my Visa left there (I only use it for online shopping). Hope there'll be some left when I get back in three hours...

Unless I can use Amazon pay, but I doubt it. And my paypal is currently blocked because I crossed a certain spendings threshold and now need to confirm my identity...

Just order one for £10 off ebay. Can use to connect to my Z5 compact with my Penon silver short OTG cable (if it works, not too much cash to risk).

Translated from Japanese description seems promising :


Features

• Convert micro USB plug to WM - PORT plug
• Charging the "WALKMAN" with the charger included in the smartphone
• Can connect "WALKMAN" and PC with micro USB cable

Ugh, it's hard to focus now

Just did some more google on that WMC-NWC10 cable
From amazon.jp, a user reviewed it as following
http://amzn.asia/i9b7AEP

RHAのポータブルヘッドホンアンプと接続して使用しております。
(Connecting with my RHA portable headphone amplifier right now)
音質については不明ですが、悪くなったりはしないので満足です。
(not some bad impact on sound quality I notice so feel like a good purchase for me)​

So I guess it works for smartphone?

This adapter is very useful and I own one too
can transfer file also change with any USB micro cable
I use it more than the original walkman cable

I've finally realised what being an Audiophile is all about ! Its trying to get bits of kit working together with various adapters, dongles, cables etc.

For my Shure SE846's alone I have a standard cable, remote/mic cable, 2.5mm balanced cable, ifi IEMatch noise reducer and soon a 2.5mm to 4.2mm adapter and also a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter !!!

Don't worry too much, they have easy access to sony stock so you probably will get one without a problem
