Is there a song limit when it comes to playlists made through the Walkman app? The Linux-based Walkmans only let you make playlists with up to 999 tracks, I was wondering if it's the same with the Android models.
One thing that I notice about Sony DAP owners, 707 included, is that the built-in DSP are not a popular feature and many just prefers the direct sound. Well there may be various reasons for this but it would be a "waste" and not fully getting what they've paid for. Obviously there are the so called "purist" who would never "temper" the source and believe doing so would impair the "authenticity" of the music. I'm not here to debate about this as it's ppls' own choice and they are welcome to do so. Its just that if you're curious about why Sony engineers put this DSP features in in the 1st place you may read the following articles and at least understand where this whole thing is coming from and see if you like to give it a try (btw, trying it won't hurt/degrade/.. you in any way!)
Following is an article on interviewing the concerned Sony engineers and after reading it you may be tempted to give it a try. For me, I find that using DC Phase Linearzer type A high with Vinyl Processor set to surface noise does give me a very noticeable, diff sound, one that's better - more solid/dense sound, better microdynamice/details, better imaging, and above all, a very close enough "analog sound" esp. for those who grew up with LPs, cassettes, I now am listening with 707 can't without this not turned on ..

They pair very well, just recently got the Z1R and I love them, I’m completely spoiled and can’t even go back to listening to my M7 anymore. I got lucky and I have no issues with the fitting, but I have heard of many people having issues I would recommend if you can demo them somewhere to do so before purchasing them.Is there anyone who can say how the 707 pairs with the IER-Z1R? A good source for these iems? Ah, sorry, just read just a few pages back that they are.
I don’t believe it the leather case should interfere with the Bluetooth transmission, I have leather cases on all my devices and have never had any issues using Bluetooth.Anyone use the 707 with a genuine leather Musashino case? Just ordered a red one from Japan. Not sure if the case could interfere with strength of the BT transmission.
Okay, thank you.I don’t believe it the leather case should interfere with the Bluetooth transmission, I have leather cases on all my devices and have never had any issues using Bluetooth.
Yes, I’ve purchased them twice before. Never heard such a sound. Arguably the best iems I’ve listened to.They pair very well, just recently got the Z1R and I love them, I’m completely spoiled and can’t even go back to listening to my M7 anymore.

I use mine with Lirics and love the combo.A retailer strongly recommended the (open-backed) Meze 109 Pro to pair with the 707. I think I might try them with an upgraded Silver Dragon 4.4 cable. Again, the unit I’m expecting to arrive in a few weeks from Japan will be uncapped. Will report back on how these sounded together. Beginning to steer away from the idea of 300 ohms cans. I don’t think even the uncapped 707 will be able to sufficiently power them enough to make their investment worthwhile.
The most important information is missing what is your Budget?Just bit the bullet and purchased a Japan zx707 through ebay. I've just recently found myself in this new world of experiencing music. So far have started with Qudelix 5k with the QX-Over, Tangzu Wan'er and the truthear Red Zeros. What would be a good entry point to use with this zx707?
I own both Qudelix 5k and ZX707. I own some earphones and the first ones that showed a significant difference between the sources when listening to music have been the Sony IER series. So that might be a good place to start.Just bit the bullet and purchased a Japan zx707 through ebay. I've just recently found myself in this new world of experiencing music.
