Great Sound and well built!

Great product. I have owned it for a month now. Easy to download. Good interface and clear menu. Having lossless sound is a real plus. No compressed music here. Good feel and solid built but it should be for the price. I love this unit and Iam glad I bought it. The extra money was worth it if you can afford it. No it does not have a touch screen and I wish it did but it only took a few times to get used to the interface and menu so it really is not a big problem. However the Bluetooth tech is jumpy at best, disconnects often and you have to reconnect over and over. That is with my landrover so I do not know about other vehicles. Would still recommend this over the other units that are around the same price. It is a Sony and I trust them.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Performance, Audio Quality is Superb!

I'm a huge Sony fan, always have been since the late 90's. I bought this primarily for being able to play FLAC, DSD, and having the ability to stream LDAC Bluetooth quality. I've had this product for over a year now.
Paired this up with my MDR-1000x and I love every bit of it. If you're looking for a great audio player for all HQ file types, this is your player. It has a great interface, plenty of out of the box space and battery life. All of your music regardless of format will sound better when the internal codecs and optimizers stream your song.
My only problem with it and the newer zx300 is the limited transfer speed of the USB 2.0 along with slow down when browsing albums by cover art. For a 2016 product USB 3.0 should be a standard. You have files that can average up to 200 megabytes if stored in 24 bit / 192khz per song. The transfer time can add up pretty quickly which is disappointing. Along with a slowdown when browsing your albums by cover art, it needs a faster intnternal CPU or a HZ boost. I hope Sony would really step up their game with the next release and include a USB 3.0 file transfer.
At the end of the day, I would still recommend this to a friend no problem.

I received this unit from a Foreign Country seller and is as grand as other Sony Hi-Res products. My only displeasure was to discover there is NO Radio. As a Disabled Person, I depend on my MP3 units to assist me to sleep, so hearing every note as they should sound lulls me better.

I have loaded this with HDR Music I purchased for this unit and CDs ripped with lossless compression. I truly love the sound through the included earbuds and through bluetooth Bose QC-35 headphones.

Simple version of NW-ZX2
But in my opinion the NW-ZX2 is better than simplicity, convenience, battery time, and reliable.
A good music player with sound, no nonsense and add-ons around.
It's fun to hear with him.

An Excellent Hi-Res Player
on November 25, 2019
Posted by: Yankee67

I got this player for the features of long battery life, the built in 128gb of storage space, the ability to add an additional 128gb of storage with a micro card, the build, ease of use, being intuitive and the sound quality. I had the NW-ZX1 but I didn't like the touch screen function, the lack of an extra storage slot compartment and the player froze up and I was not able to access my music or get the player to work. I got this player used at an excellent price and also got the extra addition of some hi-res music already loaded and stored on the player. I also like that you can access and listen to your music in hi-res mode as well as in other modes. I also can't wait to try the noise cancellation feature with some over the ear noise cancellation headphones. I highly recommend this player. Thanks Sony.
