Thnx for your review. I still have 3 questions : 1. can we download podcasts and listen offline to the stored podcasts 2. is this device compatible with apple airplay ( so that ons can stream music to an apple tv 4k 3. can we sync the device with the Music Lib stored on a macbook. Looking forward to your answer. Kr,
We are really loving the series of videos TeamHZ are making. We would really love to have a video featuring best wireless headphones including new Sony releases. You guys are the best.
Another question: Can play TH-cam videos in the background on it, and when you press the download video button in the TH-cam app, does it use the SD card memory (not the internal memory) Thanks
Will it be able to handle the hd650 , e5000, oxygen and do you think I would be able to get something near to the performance when we compared with the topping dx3 pro plus.
No they don’t have but still they sound better than a55. A55 gives good battery life compared to them. But in terms of sound , may they have not vpt option as they decide sounding like recording studio so they don’t give it. But still sounds better specially less warm more details but yes can gain better sound stage and gives close to natural sound and also bass response is better too.
Between A&Norma SR35 and Sony A306, which one is better in terms of sound quality and durability? And will it be worth to spent more than double than A306 or should I settle with this only?
Hey there, the Sony NW A306 is a great option as it is a running open Android so you can use streaming services while the other mentioned DACs are only limited to offline music playback.
@@headphone_zone 100-500. I would prefer not to spend more than DAP itself. I watched a video where one guy claims it sounds great with 60 bucks earphones and read some articles that without balanced output it can't really power any mid to high end cups. I have already Sennheiser HD660S for my other walkman Sony NW1MA and Bose QC35 for flights etc. They both sound fine. So if there's some better fit I would appreciate your opinion. Thx
Hello sir will you consider pairing this dap with ifi go link dac? . Will it improve the sound quality (also ifi go link has native dsd support which is la la in sony nw a306).
Pairing the Sony - NW-A306 with the iFi Audio - GO Link DAC could potentially enhance the sound quality, as the iFi GO Link offers native DSD support. However, it's important to note that the NW-A306 already features a built-in DAC. Using an external DAC like the iFi GO Link might be redundant in this case, as the NW-A306 would essentially be acting as a transport. If you're looking to explore different sound signatures or have specific preferences, you can certainly give it a try and see if it suits your taste. Experimenting with audio setups can be a fun journey! 🎶🔊
Pls suggest an excellent natural tonality IEM. Reference: Sony MH755. I am searching for Sony Ericsson Walkman phone or Nokia XpressMusic like powerfull and textured Bass with natural tonality. Currently I am using Bose SportEarbuds and I love its Bass and overall details.
Wireless connectivity, including Bluetooth, has its limitations, and it may not transmit lossless quality audio due to compression during transmission. If you want to enjoy lossless-quality audio, it's recommended to use a wired connection. A direct wired connection ensures audio signal remains uncompressed, providing the best possible sound quality. Keep in mind that the quality of your audio source and the playback device also play crucial roles in the overall listening experience. 🎶🔊
@@headphone_zone if I’ll use the 3.5mm connector which Sony gave with the XM5 Headphones, will this be sufficient or do I need a DAC and yes I’ve Apple Music?
They both are amazing devices. NW-A306 gives a non-cluttered user experience with great audio quality whereas the Temoptec V6 is a hardware-oriented device offering Balanced output so you can't go wrong with either of them. They both sound great!
ZX707 is better as they have more specific features like dsee ultimate has more presets (like ai based automatic enhancement, female vocal extension, male vocal extension) that’s is not available in nw a306.
Playback speed 1.25x.
Thank you, infact 1.5x also works fine
Believe me, 1.75 is actually better.

the guy doesn't know shit about this walkman...

The Sony Walkman has the surround sound function (VPT) like the NW A55?
No they don’t have but still they sound better than a55. A55 gives good battery life compared to them. But in terms of sound , may they have not vpt option as they decide sounding like recording studio so they don’t give it.

Between A&Norma SR35 and Sony A306, which one is better in terms of sound quality and durability? And will it be worth to spent more than double than A306 or should I settle with this only?
Which one should I buy as a DAP? HIBY - R2 II (GEN 2), SHANLING - M0 PRO, or Sony NW A306.
Hey there, the Sony NW A306 is a great option as it is a running open Android so you can use streaming services while the other mentioned DACs are only limited to offline music playback.
Hi. Can it play MP4 files from the SD card with the screen saver on please?
What are the best headphones that would you recommend for nw306?
Hey there, depending on your budget we can recommend you something that would go well with the SONY NW-A306 Walkman.

@@headphone_zone OK sir will this combination work for moondrop aria 2 with genres like metalcore, pop, hip hop, classical, rock, EDM, country
How is the Bass output/response on Sony MH755 or BLON-BL03 or any hi-res 32 Ohms earphone?
Hey there, in general IEMs/earphones sound great when paired with the Sony NW-A306.
Pls suggest an excellent natural tonality IEM. Reference: Sony MH755. I am searching for Sony Ericsson Walkman phone or Nokia XpressMusic like powerfull and textured Bass with natural tonality. Currently I am using Bose SportEarbuds and I love its Bass and overall details.
Hey there, you can consider the Moondrop Blessing 3
Qs: Does this device stream the same loss less quality if it is connected with a blue tooth home theater bar, or blue tooth earbuds?
Wireless connectivity, including Bluetooth, has its limitations, and it may not transmit lossless quality audio due to compression during transmission.

Which iem is best for this walkman
Is moondrop blessing 3 is recommended ????
Moondrop Blessing 3 is highly recommended, although A306 is capable of driving any IEM you pair it with
I’ve this walkman and Sony XM5 headphones, what else do I need to have to get a audiophile like experience?
Hey there, we suggest plugging in a wired headphone or IEM and listening to Hi-Res tracks on Apple Music.
@@headphone_zone if I’ll use the 3.5mm connector which Sony gave with the XM5 Headphones, will this be sufficient or do I need a DAC and yes I’ve Apple Music?
Can this player run beyerdynamic dt 700 pro 80 ohms efficiently? if not any other option you might suggest under 40k
Yes, the Sony - NW-A306 will be able to drive the Beyerdynamic - DT 700 PRO 80 ohms
Somy nw a306vs tempotec v6 ,which is better?
They both are amazing devices. NW-A306 gives a non-cluttered user experience with great audio quality whereas the Temoptec V6 is a hardware-oriented device offering Balanced output so you can't go wrong with either of them. They both sound great!
Can you tidal on this in india
Wish the review was more honest and talked about the cons as well. It was more like a 9 min advertisement of the A306.
Feedback taken. We'll try and offer a more balanced perspective.
Is the product supports Bluetooth bro
Hey there, yes, the Sony NW-A306 supports Bluetooth connections.
ZX707 is better as they have more specific features like dsee ultimate has more presets (like ai based automatic enhancement, female vocal extension, male vocal extension) that’s is not available in nw a306.
The Sony NW-ZX707 sure offers an upgrade from the NW-A306.
@@headphone_zone yup it’s the zx series and also has balanced output too. So that’s the great way for balancing between two channels.
which headphones are recommended for this device?
We would say the Meze - 99 Classics
really really
really...
1.5x
Who is watching in 1.5x speed😂😂
