Sony’s NW-ZX100 high-res music player – Review
April 22, 2016 Comments Off on Sony’s NW-ZX100 high-res music player – Review
“During comparisons with my Astell & Kern Jr high-res music player it didn’t take long to hear the NW ZX100 sounded richer and fuller-bodied. I listened with Audeze EL-8 and AudioQuest NightHawk full-size headphones, and heard similar differences between the two players with my Jerry Harvey Audio JH13 in-ear headphones, the NW-ZX100’s sound was consistently more satisfying than the Jr’s. There’s a sure-footed solidity to the presentation, so instruments and vocals sound more life-like with the NW-ZX100. That one also trumped the Astell & Kern Jr in resolving the quieter details of recordings, like the way a singer phrases the lyrics, the Jr glossed over those details. High-resolution files had slightly better transparency than standard res files.”
