| top Sony Walkman, and pursuing high-res "ZX1" Sep 29th 2013, 19:09, by Maximus In the design which was particular about thoroughly sound quality, Sony will release December 7, Walkman top model corresponding to the hi-res music to 24bit/192kHz the "NW-ZX1". Built-in memory capacity of 128GB, Open Price. Estimated retail price of 75,000 yen. Silver color only. In the NW-F880 series released October 19, you have sound quality enhancement corresponds to 24bit/192kHz hi-res, or equipped with a newly developed S-Master HX amplifiers, NW-ZX1 series and know-how of Pure Audio aggregates, flagship model that was particular about the sound of a portable environment thoroughly. And frame of machined aluminum, power enhancement due to the adoption of the large capacitor, such as dedicated clock oscillator with, I tried to differentiate. As compared with F880 series, features such as FM radio and digital noise canceling is omitted. This is because that, to eliminate as much as possible the impact on the sound quality. Further, since it is assumed the use of high-end users, headphones also not included, the user has to connect ones choice. At Sony, we grant the "Hi-Res" logo for products that meet the quality standards of the company classified as "high-res" quantization bit number 24bit, the music of the sampling rate 96kHz or more, and, in response to those files. NW-ZX1 deployed as Walkman top model. | NW-ZX1 | NW-F880 |

Sound quality improvement "pure" and strengthening power and high rigidity chassis The main function as an audio player is common with the F880 series, but stick to sound more, and specially designed power supply and chassis, the audio circuit. Based on the machined aluminum frame, chassis, reduce the negative impact on sound quality due to vibration and unnecessary high rigidity. Because it was equipped with a large capacitor to drive headphones, there is a bulge in the lower back, but the rubber grip of the exterior, it was realized the texture to adjust to a hand. In addition, rear spacers to be used for, such as when used with headphone amplifier also included.I wrap up in a brass cutting parts of cylindrical shape and headphone jack unit, which fixed more firmly. Use the clock oscillator dedicated to DAC. By supplying a high-precision clock, to improve the accuracy of the internal computation circuit and tried to reduce noise and distortion. The adoption of large capacitor (OS-CON), power is also achieved in powerful bass. I adopted a protection circuit and a low-resistance cables to the battery connection. Further, to remove unwanted noise digital amplifier, thereby achieving a brush up signal circuit to adopt a film capacitor. And the adoption of high-quality parts, such as suppression thorough vibration, the basic approach was due amount as "pure audio technique," although, by this approach, I have to improve the sound quality. 24bit/192kHz hi-res sound support. Also digital output of the WM-Port Of type 4/854 × 480 dot "bird Luminous display for mobile" LCD display is made of finish, such as a sheet of glass plate and "Optimistic contrast panel". OS is Android 4.1. Supports hi-res audio files FLAC of 24bit/192kHz, Apple Lossless, WAV, such as AIFF. However, it does not correspond to the DSD, support music format consists FLAC, Apple Lossless, AIFF, WAV, MP3, AAC, WMA, and ATRAC. I correspond between songs without the "gapless playback" even, MP3 Apple Lossless and AIFF, AAC. Music management software Media Go Ver.2.5 or later. The headphone output 15mW × 2ch (16Ω). I have the amount of information from 3 to 6.5 times of the CD in the hi-res sound source. For this purpose, it is to strengthen in each area and power amplifier, such as high-quality sound processing. As described above, the strengthening of power, brush-up of the circuit, including the adoption of high-quality parts, is the difference between F880 series, the basic digital amplifier and proprietary "S-Master HX" quality interpolation techniques such as "DSEE HX" deployment function has become common. By eliminating the coupling capacitor, increasing the damping of low-frequency, S-Master HX is realized bass sharp. DSEE HX are those interpolated such as high-frequency sound source in the compression and high-quality sound reproduction. In DSEE conventional had performed processing up to 16bit/48kHz, but in DSEE HX, from 16bit/48kHz process, the bit extension to 24bit, and up-sampled to 192kHz Furthermore, treatment with 24bit/192kHz Inside in compressed files I do the. To Thus, the enhanced reproducibility of minute sound tends disappear compressed. The body, in addition to the volume, I am equipped with a button play / stop, back track forward /. Without looking at the screen, I can be carried basic operations as an audio player. Of player app "W. Music", corresponding to the hi-res music. I was in can create a shortcut songs and albums, your favorite artists in my library as a TOP page. In addition, you can also use music search function in W. music. Use when connecting to the external device or PC "WM-Port", corresponding to the digital audio output. It was possible to leave the output digital signal to compatible devices such as portable amplifier "PHA-2".In addition to the NW-ZX1, WM-Port of NW-F880 also corresponding to the digital audio output. Bluetooth / Wi-Fi / NFC support Android 4.1 is in the OS. In addition to support the app by adding Google Play, in addition to standard application and Gmail YouTube, Google Map, such as a Web browser, to be installed and W. Sony's original music, video player, a photo viewer. The built-in speakers in the main body, to strengthen the bass by xLOUD, you can play. And wireless LAN IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n, I corresponding to Bluetooth (A2DP/AVRCP/OPP/HID). Features include functional, it is equipped with the NFC reader / writer function. Just one touch and NFC-enabled speakers, you can set a stretch to connect from the pairing of Bluetooth. Can be carried in a one-touch cut. It is equipped with a flat-rate application of music distribution and "Music Unlimited" application, music distribution "mora", e-books, such as "Reader". I also supports DTCP-IP and DLNA. And drag-and-drop music transfer from PC-compatible management / transfer software to "Media Go Ver.2.5". I have a built-in Media Go to body memory. The Media Go, and music management of hi-res file of 24bit/192kHz is possible, and can be carried even ripping in FLAC format. I have a measurement in for battery life. The dimensions measured in 122.8 × 60.7 × 15.3mm (length × width × thickness), the weight. Spacers and USB cable, accessories such as carrying pouch. Headphones not included. |
