This is the best dap I have tried I prefer android based one, as I watch youtube videos a lot Especially classical music videos

I had to import this, as the UK Version is capped, but the Japanese version is cheaper and up to the task... Excellent quality sound pairing with the Sony MDR-Z1R; High-Gain on, Volume 80/120 -Japan Version (Uncapped) -Approx 9 hours of offline streaming -Approx 5-6 hours of streaming Apple Music Lossless Improvements Needed: -The grip on the back feels like a soggy sponge, the faux leatherette on the first gen is much better -The battery should be removable in a unit of this size... -It really needs Android 13, this is stuck on Android 11 -The volume dial needs its own shortcut on the Home Screen -EU version needs its volume cap removing -Why is the Sony 4.4mm Kimber Kable not sold in UK markets?? (Imported it, and it's great) -It should include a display box like the (cheaper) MDR-Z1R does...

Its a great player with android os.Excellent sound for what ever music i play.

I’ve had it for a little over a week now, and can categorically say that this is an endgame piece of HeadFi kit. That said. It severely hampered by the fact the EU version is vastly underpowered, and will require more than 2/3 of the max 120 volume, to drive a pair of 15Ohm 116dB IEM’s. This is the DAP I’ve been waiting for since owning the amazing NW-HD1, and it looks like the wait continues unfortunately.

I bought this to listen to my Apple Music Library. Setting it up was very easy. I wish that Sony comes out with videos on how to use it. It took me a while to play around with it. Good solid product. I don't have to get an additional streamer, dac or headphone amplifier. Highly recommended.

Great product. But if the volume can gradually increase from the start of the song to the setting I set it would be great. I like the volume setting I set at 80% but when the next song is being played the volume is like too loud.

I bought this about a month ago. The sound quality is superb and also I can subscribe to streaming. Six months ago, I also bought their signature headphone amplifier which was a great match to the earlier M1; I could listen continuously as it also recharges the M1. Unfortunately, with the M2, my listening pleasure has to be stopped when the battery runs down. Maybe the M2 is designed to be similar to the DMP?

Bought this n found the music to be crystal clear without distortion. I am hearing new instrument from songs I have listen for years. Connection was easy to use n battery life was like 8 hours without wifi

I’m impressed, will buy it again in next generation of this digital music player?

Sales assured me the UK version still had High Gain and wasn't volume capped like the previous Sony Android DAPs so ordered, but on immediate arrival I confirmed No High gain and volume needing to about 30 steps higher for same volume output as International versions (as with A107 and ZX507). I'm now awaiting Amazon Japan stock to import one. Beautiful player but avoid EU ones unless you only intend to use easy to drive IEMs. If sold as it should be I'd give in 4* dropping a star for OTT price so expect I would give the A1M2 5*
