Sony Silver Hi-Res Music Player With 1TB HDD, Model HAPZ1ES
Experience audio at its best with this Sony Hi-Res music player. A massive 1TB hard drive lets you store plenty of music files on this innovative music player, and it supports a wide range of high-resolution audio formats so that you can play most tunes. Integrated Wi-Fi keeps transfers seamless. An easy-to-use user interface also makes it simple to sort, organize, select and play your music from the 4-inch display.
Inside this Sony music player is plenty of structural reinforcement to cope with the enhanced sound output from it. This means it can handle up to 35 watts per channel and apply four analog finite impulse response filters across each one so that you can fine-tune the responses of your loudspeakers and reduce noise. This lets you reproduce audio exactly as it was supposed to sound. If the storage isn't enough, you can quickly expand this 1TB music player via USB drives, and DSD remastering combines various technologies so that you get even more out of this Sony Hi-Res music player.
Features:
- Hi-Res Music Playback
The HAP-Z1ES can playback and decode the following file formats: DSD (DSF,DSDIFF),
PCM (44.1k/ 48k/ 88.2k/ 96k/ 176.4k/ 192kHz·16/ 24/ 32bit) DSD(2.8/
5.6MHz), WAV, AIFF, FLAC, ALAC, ATRAC Advanced Lossless, ATRAC, MP3, AAC,
WMA music file playback
- 1TB Hard Drive for music playback
Store personal music of all formats for local music playback on the 1 terrabyte
hard drive. Hard Drive is expandable via USB external hard drives
- Analog FIR Filters
This digital-to-analog converter effectively reduces high-frequency noise
in DSD signals. It features independent right and left channels, with four
analog FIR (Finite Impulse Response) filters per channel producing a combined
one-clock delay. FIR filters are ideal for D/A conversion of DSD signals
- DSD re-mastering engine
This ideal D/A conversion system combines a high-performance DSP and FPGA
(field programmable gate array) to convert all signals to 128 FS DSD signals.
It was designed based on know-how garnered from Sony’s direct 8-times
oversampling and Extended SBM (Super Bit Mapping) technology for professional
recorders
- Digital Sound Enhancement Engine
Offers natural sound with a spacious feel by restoring high frequency sound
and the tail shape of the waveform likely to be removed through the audio
compression process
- WiFi Built-in
Newly designed built-in Wi-Fi increasing whole-house coverage and signal strength.
HAP-Z1ES is rigorously tested to ensure its Wi-Fi signal strength. This real
world testing is to certify it will work under the most extreme conditions
- “HDD Audio Remote” for iOS and Android phones and Tablets
A dedicated app to control your listening experience with the HAP-Z1ES. Create
playlists, search stored music and full track control
- Expandable storage via USB
Connect external hard drives to expand the players storage capabilities
- Music transfer software
Compatible with both Windows and Mac computers, this simple music transfer
software allows you to select your music folder and sync it with the HAP-Z1ES
- Low-phase noise liquid crystal oscillator
The master clock acting as the performance standard for D/A conversion is
vital to achieving high sound quality. In particular, sound quality is strongly
impacted by phase noise. This unit employs a liquid crystal oscillator with
extremely low phase noise to achieve an ultra-clear sound field
- Two large-capacity separate twin transformers
For Analog and Digital circuits, big and powerful transformers are used individually.
The transformers are treated with impregnation in a vacuum. In a power block,
analog circuit and digital circuit are separated strictly. It can remove some
adverse effect from digital noise
- The ES Frame and Beam chassis
The FB chassis, composed of a frame and beams, has a long and cherished tradition
in the Sony ES Series. It offers both high-precision mounting of parts and
high rigidity, achieving a high-fidelity sound field carrying large amounts
of information. Notably, the base is composed of two plates of differing thickness
that provide sturdy support for the chassis. There are two additional base
plates beneath the transformers as well, offering robust reinforcement that
anchors the transformers firmly in place
