In pursuit of its aim to provide the highest sound quality possible, Sony is introducing the new NW-ZX100 Walkman®, equipped with a new High-Resolution Audio compatible digital noise cancelling function.
NW-ZX100 Walkman®
By using Sony’s acoustic engineering technologies, Sony’s expanding range of High-Resolution Audio products aim to reproduce music just as artists truly intended, beyond CD quality. The ZX100 Walkman® stays true to form and delivers not only High-Resolution file formats in stunning quality, but also enhances your compressed music files such as MP3 using DSEE HX™ technology, which complements the treble of compressed sound sources and bit rate beyond their original values up to a region that corresponds to near High-Resolution sound quality.
The ZX100 Walkman® further immerses you into the world of High-Resolution Audio. It will just be you and your music, no matter where you’re at.
Aimed at achieving a more delicate and dynamic sound, S-Master HX™ performs full digital processing of the audio signal to support playback of High-Resolution sound. Headphone driver performance is improved by reducing noise in the High-Resolution sound range, by eliminating the coupling condenser for headphone amplifier output, and by utilizing a unique design that incorporates four independent headphone driver power supplies for the positive, negative, and left/right channels.
Offering you more options to listen to your tunes, the ZX100 Walkman® incorporates LDAC™ (low latency codec), a new audio technology from Sony that allows you to enjoy high quality wireless audio via Bluetooth®. With three times the data transmitted, LDAC™ provides an enhanced wireless listening experience.
The design of the ZX100 Walkman® is aimed at achieving the highest quality sound. With its sleek, rounded aluminum frame and bass plate for high rigidity, as well as its high purity lead free solder developed by Sony for high-end audio products, the ZX100 Walkman® is able to produce a natural frequency balance. By filling the VIA hole in the printed circuit board with copper, the ZX100 Walkman® is able to realize distinct bright and high range vocals, as well as a powerful and firm bass. This unique design stabilizes the power line and lowers the impedance of the circuit to produce only the best audio quality.
Keeping you and your extensive music library going is its 45-hour battery life and large 128GB internal memory. There is also a microSD card slot to expand the memory, with additional support for micro SDXC cards larger than 64GB.
NW-A25 & NW-A26HN Walkman®
The new NW-A25 and NW-A26HN Walkman® feature everything you have come to expect from a High-Resolution Audio powerhouse and more. The NW-A26HN Walkman® comes bundled with High-Resolution Audio compatible Digital Noise Cancelling headphones allowing you to enjoy your music away from all distractions. With advancements to Sony’s S-Master HX™ full digital amplifier, music is played with more delicate and dynamic sound than ever before. Meanwhile, DSEE HX™, Sony’s unique upscaling technology, enhances compressed music files like MP3 formats to near High-Resolution Audio quality.
High quality wireless listening is also enabled via LDAC™ (low latency codec), a new audio technology from Sony that allows you to enjoy high quality wireless audio via Bluetooth®. With three times more data transmitted, LDAC™ provides an enhanced wireless listening experience for all your music.
Available in two capacities, 16GB (NW-A25) and 32GB (NW-A26HN), as well as with an added microSD card slot for expanded memory, both Walkman® players allow you to enjoy your favorite tunes and extensive High-Resolution Audio libraries. With a 50-hour battery life, you are free to listen to your favorite tunes for hours on the go.
