I think its worth trying to source the device from an Asian retailer. I got my NW-A45 for 25% less from a Chinese store than Amazon was selling it for at the timeThe A55 is still a consideration for me for sure, I hope that is the case and it comes to Canada.
Yeah, they tend to have lower sony prices for everything. I've seen the zx300a for circa 280 bucks on many occasions. Also the new ier iems are quite a bit cheaper thereI think its worth trying to source the device from an Asian retailer.

Well, they sell like hotcakes, especially in China which is a huge market. It seems that they are starting ti care less about the narket outside Asia aside from Europe coz they are still engaged in it, which isapparent fron the fact that they are bringing all the new Walkmans this November along with the nw a55I have had two bad experiences shipping DAP's to China for repair under warranty. My Cowon Plenue D cost me a fortune in shipping back and forth and two months of waiting and was never properly fixed. I also had a warranty return and replacement on my Sony A17 which I bought in Canada. It cost me a total of $19.00 in shipping and insurance and I had my replacement unit 10 days after I shipped my defective unit. The difference in the two experiences plus 15 years in high end audio sales convinced me never to import electronics, especially when they have batteries. No if Sony wants me to buy one of their products they can sell it in Canada. Plenty of other options for me that don't require me to import it. The fact a major company like Sony won't sell their DAP's in Canada while most of the Chinese companies do makes no sense to me. They are already exporting tons of electronics to Canada so why not all their DAP's? Makes me wonder just how well their DAP's really sell when they ignore a large part of the world market in North America and most of Europe at least on the A55.

I hope so (I also have an Audio Technica MSR7). The problem is that 3.5mm audio output only has 50mW power, and like the ZX300, I fear that the ZX500 will also have a mandatory volume cap (limitation) in Europe. This is a common claim of Sony's walkmans of costumers in Europe. This is why I am thinking it twice before ordering the ZX500...So will the new Sony dap be able to drive my ATH-MSR7 or my Sony 1000xm2. I am half deaf ( right ear) so I do prefer a lot of power so I can turn the volume up high,usually around 65/75%
The only reason I bought the ZX300 was because it’s so easy to remove the volume cap. Unless a similar workaround is found for the ZX500 I’m going to pass. I’m not prepared to import it with all the associated risks regarding the warranty.
I’m willing to bet in Europe sales of the ZX500 will not be as healthy as the ZX300 unless an easy workaround is found.
