Review: Expensive but seems it's worth every penny - I love music and this is my 5th sony walkman --earlier models include a zx300 and two zx2's (don't ask). I really wanted to buy the nw-1zm2 but for that price ($3900 including tax) I would have expected a user changeable battery and software upgrade visibility (means full functionality guarantee for at least 8-10 years-having learnt my lesson from my zx2s losing some key functionalities just 3-4 years into the purchase- Sony stopped firmware update support and the walkman was stuck with android 4.2 version which resulted in many apps not continuing to be compatible with the old android version -for example spotify) and hence I know from bitter experience that sony models ( and all other brands for that matter) get obsolete due to (well calculated?) lack of support ( firmware/battery) in 4 years or so. For some reason, they put in stingy amount RAM which makes no sense considering cost of RAM is very low but i doubt this walkman has more than 4 gb ram judging by the lag it shows sometimes. I know I could probably send in my older walkman for a battery change to their center in NY and might have too but reduced functionality due to obsolete firmware makes it an unworthy pursuit. Coming to this walkman. My theory is that when you put it on and - the sound is so good that it makes you smile- the smile works on facial muscles to open ears wider and the sound improves further and thus you hear even better and better (kidding!) - seriously speaking- I noted complete separation of instruments- which then blend back together nicely, great Soundstage and overall brilliant clarity. I put on kate bush hounds of love and then some progressive house( hernan cattaneo) both flac files ripped from my own cd collection and before I knew it, I had finished hearing the complete albums - thoroughly enjoying them and with no fatigue and it was bliss. The music had my complete attention and I was fully engaged processing all the details coming in through my ears. A lot of subtle sounds that I never heard before and I have a great audio system hooked up with MIT cables so the quality of sound was obviously something. EDIT: have had it for 2-3 weeks now, feel no regret buying it. Heard it a few times (right?- where is the time to enjoy all these things) and tried 2 or 3 different ear phones as well as sony z7 over ear headphone. Felt it was underpowered for the over ear as i had it on on full volume, got loud and clear but it was at full volume- good news is that it did not distort or lose quality even while playing full volume. Tried it with sony z5 earphones with stock cable- sounded GOOD- sublime, thoroughly enjoyed the combination. Tried it JVC steel HD01 (do not remember the exact model) - Excellent, really really nice earphones for the price ($200 something) and those sounded very well paired with the walkman as well. Important note: I have several in ear phones and always struggled with some discomfort...either my ears ached, or the phones would slip out or the sound did not feel right and many times i needed to keep pushing them back in and i just passed the years thinking it is what it is. I am a 6 ft 3 guy and used medium or large size silicons/foams and then one day i tested small (never considered small might be my size). My life changed after that. Even the heavy stainless steel body JVC which earlier felt heavy in my ears -feel as if i am not even wearing them since i started using the correct size tips. Trust me, its made me love my old phones all over again and really changed my music listening experience since I finally found the correct size tips that fits my ears. I highly recommend experimenting with diff sizes of tips if you are encountering any of the discomforts i mentioned earlier. I finally got myself the JVC spiral dots in small size for all my phones except the sony z5 which came with an elaborate array of its own tips. Good news is that most of your earphones come with multiple sizes so do sort that issue out before worrying about getting a new dap. Back to the walkman-I love it. Have ordered the original case from japan for an additional 100 usd or so. EDIT: the case arrived, its real leather and the manual inside it says its special leather from Japan itself although the case is manufactured in china. Case felt good quality, the buttons have hard bits in them so even though you press the leather, the buttons on the walkman respond to pushes. I like the original sony case - worth seeking out. I put in a 1 tb sandisk card. Loaded it my music collection- all of them flac files. No particular lag even though there's a Tb of music loaded. Screen quality is good and touch screen is responsive. Spotify tested and works just fine. Edit: Its not completely without lag. When scrolling, album art is slow to show. When you turn on the walkman, even though spotify can be played relatively quickly, it takes a minute for loaded music to be accessible ( i do have 900 gb of music but as mentioned, SONY could easily have put in 8 gb of Ram for the price they are charging) Only issue I found is that it's menu locate by artist and not 'album artist' which makes it difficult to jump to a particular album considering over a tb of music even though I have about a 1000 album artists but probably few thousand total artists. Edit: found that it has a feature to sort by 'album artist' vs 'artist'- good job Sony! Battery life not really tested as I got it just yesterday. Bought from desertcart and I got one of first 100 serial numbers ! EDIT: My zx2 used to discharge over time if just left in the drawer, this walkman 1am2 does not seem to suffer from that problem. I left it unused for 10 days ( was studying for an exam ) and found the charge where i left it a few days ago...so i guess that problem is not on this walkman which is great. Is the walkman itself in terms of the physical item something that is worth $1500+ maybe not- but if you include in the sum of its parts it's ability to achieve the sound quality that it can and play your music at the level that you will enjoy it at another level, I think one can bear it. Another thing, the desertcart description says its made in malaysia. The piece I received is made in China (says so on the box as well as on the device) Does not mean anything but just mentioning. Will update if something comes to mind. Pros -Best in class and beyond -No Brainer under $3000 category -Excellent build quality Cons -No user changeable battery ( at high dollar prices it should be) -No firmware staying up to date visibility beyond year 4. -Should have had the case included - A little laggy -tested with 900 gb music on sandisk card -all FLAC ( no excuse for SONY not to have put in more RAM or whatever it is that would avoid that problem) encountered when scrolling through albums, the album art shows with a lag. At this price point, sony could have done a better job aka put in more RAM. - Music access not available right away when you turn on - although if that means battery is conserved- its totally excusable PS- I have a 1 TB sandisk card in my walkman containing almost 2000 albums including artwork etc. I have had no problems with operation - not even one time. If you add or delete stuff, it's normal functioning for this device to rebuild database ( longer process) . If you power on from a previous power off state, it does take a minute to read the database. This is normal functioning.
Review: Sonido impresionante - Sin duda, un gran DAP. Lo he utilizado con Bluetooth en los codecs de alta definición y es impresionante como transmite en HD, obviamente con los auriculares que soporten esos codecs (en mi caso Sennheiser MTW4 y Denon Perl Pro). En las salidas físicas simplemente inigualable, la música presenta un stage y una imagen sumamente impresionante. Altamente recomendable si quieres dar un paso adelante en sonido y portabilidad de aquella que puede ofrecer cualquier Smartphone, pues tu música sonará impresionante y podrás percibir rasgos y detalles que se pierden regularmente por la comprensión de los archivos. Debe destacarse que sí es necesario reproducir los codecs específicos ya que incluso Lossless de Apple Music representa una diferencia sumamente importante cuando se reproduce en este DAP en relación a cualquier Smartphone; sumando que se requiere auriculares que soporten la transmisión wireless en HD, ni qué decir de las salidas físicas, donde obviamente necesitarás auriculares HD. La batería es similar al uso de cualquier Smartphone, aunque si se desactiva WiFi y el Bluetooth el rango de duración se incrementa, pero al final del día dependerá de su uso, pero sin duda es muy bueno su rendimiento.
