This sounds just amazing in USB DAC mode (DSEE AI, TYPE B LOW):

I had reverted all the way back to stock, and all I can say is that Sony should be knocking on @MrWalkman door offering him a job - it is almost laughable how far the mods have pushed the lowly 1A - stock sounds so thin, bright and has pretty much zero soundstage in comparison to what is now available.

It is crazy what potential was laying in the palm of my hands the whole time!

Yes, this is the one.

I also have P6 and I enjoy my DMP-1A (Romi Backgated Modded) / DMP-1Z (Stock) as much as my P6!

Nice!

Any first impressions of the DMP-WM1 mod on 1A and 1Z?

Nice!

First impression on my 1A is much deeper bass with texture and a more holographic soundstage, and the presentation is so effortless and authoritative!
Will try it out in more details on my 1Z later tonight.

Modded on my WM1Z, it literally sounds like the DMP-Z1. Wowsers!! Instead of buying the actual DMP-Z1, this little pocket rocket has it all! I might just buy a second WM1Z just to keep it in stock sound and have my 1A and 1Z as my super mini DAPs! A 700,000 yen discount sounds great in my book! Wow!!

OMG! It sounds so amazingly good! The bass, the balance, the presentation and the power! Simply the best experience with any DAP!

Stock 1Z + FAudio Project Y + Satin Audio Zeus 4 wires.

Haaa 😄 everyone now has a modded 1z lol its the new best trend among luxurious 1z owners 😍😛
I bought mine used and when I get another 1Z next year, it’ll be used. They can go for as low as 160,000 yen. So I’ll wait for my tax return. Better to be financially smart with this hobby. I can now say that buying the DMP-Z1 may not be the best move for me now even tho I can afford it. So I can say I’m lucky to be in this position. Very lucky. Wow Punk Music sounds so good!
