Remember the TPS-12? If not, just know that the Sony Walkman NW-ZX707 is nothing like the very first model released, as this version features a 5-inch touchscreen display (720p), 64GB of internal storage, and S-Master HX digital amp technology, which reduces distortion as well as noise across a wide range of frequencies.
It also has a built-in DSD Remastering Engine where PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) audio is resampled into an 11.2 MHz DSD (Direct Stream Digital) and a large 8mm coil for balanced output, resulting in an improved sound resolution across all frequencies. This device runs Android 12 and can be used for up to 25-hours of 44.1kHz FLAC playback, 23-hours of 96 kHz FLAC High-Resolution Audio playback, or up to 22-hours when streaming, on a single charge. Available later this month in Asia, with pricing yet to be announced.
- EXTRA BASS for deep, punchy sound
- Sound Diffusion Processor expands sound far and wide
- Waterproof and dustproof (IP67 rated). Supported Codecs: SBC, AAC
With further progress from its predecessor models, consumers can enjoy DSEE Ultimate for upscaling their music, whether it is Wi-Fi streamed or downloaded. Now listeners can also enjoy DSEE Ultimate with wireless headphones,” said Sony.
