The Continuation Of The Sony Walkman 1Z/1A Thread!

Anybody who has an ipad pro 12.9 2021 and using the wm1a as usb dac help me with what usb c to usb to a (female) cable they use? I tried the ifi one and it doesnt work, also got a couple more usb c to usb a (female) adaptors and they dont work. The only time i can make it work is when using an anker usb c hub and a dell usb c hub… one thing i noticed when experimenting is that a workaround is to restart the wm1a while plugged to the ipad pro and all the adaptor from ifi works. For now i just use my anker usb c hub since i dont want to restart my wm1a all the time just to use it as usb dac. The ifi cable was a cleaner solution though… just wondering if there are any ipad pro 12.9 2021 owners here who have found a solution… I tried it on a friend’s ipad pro 11 2018 and all adaptors worked… thanks in advance

Yes sir it is disabled. I think the issue is really with the ipad pro 12.9 2021 for some reason it only works with usb-c hubs. I tried this one i bought from ifi the usb c version https://ifi-audio.com/products/otg-cables/
It works on a friend’s ipad pro 2018 but not on my unit… i can get it to work if the cables and wm1a are connected to the ipad pro and i restart the wm1a… will try the official one from apple recommended here…

anybody using this case ?
iwant to buy it to store my wm1a and Z1r but wonder is it good ?
because it's hard to find a case for z1r since the original cable bend in such a way.

I have three of these, one for each of my Sony DAPs and find it fantastic. Similar anyway, looks like the IEM storage is a bit different.

I use this case to carry my combo everywhere I go, it is small, sturdy. It can contain WM1A, IER M9, 3 jacks (2.5, 3.5 and 4.4), 1 WMport to micro.
