User questions & answers

Question:	when it's time, how is the battery changed out
Answer:	Can only be done by Sony ... the battery is not made to be replaced by the consumer (which is true of many, many portable audio players, particularly the higher-end types). I believe the life if the battery from complete discharge to top-up is 500 cycles, so it should last many years before any issues with the battery might become apparent.
Question:	What file types will this unit play
Answer:	Hi M, Kansas, this high-resolution Walkman supports MP3, WMA, FLAC, Linear PCM, AAC, HE-AAC, Apple Lossless, AIFF, and DSD formats. Thanks, -Mark
Question:	Why would my note 8 sound far better than this unit with direct source eq? Both using flac files and same songs? Is my unit defective
Answer:	Maybe you prefer the sound of Note 8. Many people actually like slightly "imperfect" sound. After all, on a daily basis, we are all exposed to heavily processed and eq-ed sounds so maybe that is what we start liking.
Question:	Hello What is the difference between the 2017 model and the NW-WM1A B
Answer:	What then are the differences between the "2017" model and earlier? I purchased the Amazon advertised 2017 model (at full retail) and the firmware was 1.02 and the battery was completely depleted.

User questions & answers

Question:	Why does sony not even list an nw-a55 device on their web site
Answer:	Try the listings for other countries. The N55 has not yet been directly released to the United States. As such, Sony does not list it on the US site.
Question:	Is there volume control while using this one via bluetooth? i just returned the a45 due to no volume control while using in bluetooth
Answer:	Both the 45 and the 55 have volume control. Simply check the "Use Enhanced Mode" box. You will then be able to control the volume.
Question:	will it work with media go
Answer:	Yes it generally works fine with Media Go except that Media Go does not support APE and MQA formats (MQA will play as regular FLAC files).
Question:	Which bluetooth headphone is good for this
Answer:	Everyone has their own different Bluetooth Headphones preference. I personally use the Sony WH-1000X M3 with this device (NW-A55) and they sound great together.

Question:	What is the difference between the nwws413 and the nwz-w
Answer:	The track selector toggle functions. nwz-w273: 1-click skips songs. Hold-click skips folders. nw-ws413: 1-click skips songs. 2-clicks skips folders. Hold-click fast-forwards or rewinds specific segments on the track. IMHO, the buttons on the 413 are much easier to use. The charger is much smaller. Fits better on me than the 273 without using the extra fit-adjusting band. And the "ambient" sound selector which allows u to hear your sorroundings is a good addition.
Question:	I reqd somewhere that it has an ambient noise feature, like when you can listen to music and your surroundings at the same time, does it have this
Answer:	Yes it does have an ambient noise feature. I have only tested it while sitting at the computer so see if I could hear a video while listening to the headphones. I haven't tested outside or in the gym yet.

User questions & answers

Question:	The file-importing seems too Windows-centric. For a Mac it depends on 3rd-party software that can go away or become incompatible
Answer:	Hi, Alan B. Rosenthal! For Windows we only have the music center app. See the link below for more details. https://musiccenter.sony.net/en/ Regards, David
Question:	can this drive a 300 Ω Impedance headphones
Answer:	Hi, L. Ari, No. This Walkman cannot run a 300 Ohm headphones. -Vincent
Question:	why does it cost so much compare to all other mp3 players
Answer:	So yes the player is expensive But Sony in this is a bargain considering all the parts are manufactured by Sony in house They are not buying off the shelf parts like capacitors or oscillators or even the DAC’s from a manufacturer who mass produces them Sony designs and test and makes all parts in house. So you end up with a better player thoughtfully designed Unlike astell and kern. The use dacs that are premade and cost wayyyyy less that what astell and kern sell them for. Astell and kerns 3,000 dollar player has dacs that are maybe 50-100 dollars to manufacture but sell them for $$$ in pretty aluminum cases If however your looking for a cheaper solution I’d recommend the hifime S2 dac It runs off your phone battery just make sure to buy the otg cable and then plug your headphones in using the standard 3.5mm jack I own one and it sounds really good. And for about 130 Bucks you can get the dac and cable down load tidal or Qobuz and get amazing quality very affordable Just my 2 cents I hope this helps
Question:	Can the display be extinguished during play or be set to darken automatically if user hasn't pressed buttons for "x" seconds
Answer:	Hi, Alan! If a certain amount of time elapses without any button or screen operations on the playback screen, the display will switch to the cassette tape screen. You can also turn the [Display tape playback screen] function on or off from the menu of any screen in “Music player”. Tap the menu items in the following order: (Options) － [Settings] － [Play on cassette tape screen]. Note: The player will automatically turn off the screen if you have displayed the tape playback screen for 10 minutes. Regards, Sam
