Sony announced two new music players, the NW-ZX707<\/a>, and the NW-A306<\/a> to the Walkman series family. Both players are designed for listeners to enjoy music the way the artist intended with high-quality sound with a sleek design.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Built with updated components of high-end models, the NW-ZX707 <\/strong>offers astonishing sound quality. With enhanced battery life, a balanced connection, a larger 5″ display, and Wi-Fi compatibility for easy downloading and streaming functions, it is also portable and stylish for the most demanding music lover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inheriting the philosophy of the Signature Walkman, the NW-ZX707<\/strong> has upgraded fine-tuned capacitors and an FTCAP3 (High polymer capacitor), and a large solid high polymer capacitor that offers large capacitance and low resistance. While an OFC milled block covering the digital block, allows the NW-ZX707<\/strong> to bring listeners sound that appears to rise-up from silence. Additionally, a large 8mm coil for balanced output creates an improved sound resolution across all frequencies. All four kinds of components stated here are also used in the latest Signature Walkman model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NW-ZX707<\/strong> integrates a DSD Remastering Engine where PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) audio is resampled into an 11.2 MHz DSD (Direct Stream Digital), offering even more ways to enjoy music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NW-A306 <\/strong>is designed for discerning users looking for high-quality sound and style. This stylish and compact music player lets consumers download and stream more of the music they love. With full Wi-Fi compatibility, weighing just only 7 ounces, and with the comfort and function of both a 3.6\u201d touch screen and tactile physical music controls, the NW-A306<\/strong> series is dedicated to delivering exceptional music experiences right from the users\u2019 pocket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The premium aluminium milled frame on the NW-A306 <\/strong>provides superior rigidity for low impedance and clear, stable sound and solid bass. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

NW-ZX707 and NW-A306 Common Features<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Faithful sound reproduction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

S-Master HX digital amp technology, independently developed for Walkman is compatible with the native DSD format. It reduces distortion and noise across a wide range of frequencies, for rich and full-bodied sound, further enhanced by a new high-quality sound lead-free solder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just like the latest Signature Walkman model, both models apply a reflow solder containing gold, whose effect is significant in the overall improved sound localization and wider sound space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To realize both music players\u2019 evolutionary sound, a dual clock, film capacitor, and fine sound register have been precisely placed within each Walkman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Updated DSEE Ultimate for Enhancing Streaming Music Quality<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NW-ZX707 and the NW-A306<\/strong> both use Edge-AI (Artificial Intelligence), and DSEE Ultimate™ (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) which upscales compressed digital music files in real-time. The evolving algorithm now delivers even greater benefits for CD-quality (16-bit 44.1\/48kHz) lossless codec audio. Restoring acoustic subtleties and dynamic range provides a richer, more complete listening experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NW-ZX707<\/strong> and the NW-A306<\/strong> both feature a longer battery life compared to previous models so listeners can immerse themselves in more of their music. The NW-ZX707<\/strong> has a battery life of up to 25 hours<\/a>[i]<\/a> of 44.1kHz FLAC playback, up to 23 hours1<\/sup> of 96 kHz FLAC High-Resolution Audio playback, or up to 22 hours2<\/sup> even when streaming. The NW-A306 <\/strong>has a battery lifeof up to 36 hours1<\/sup> of 44.1kHz FLAC playback, up to 32 hours1<\/sup> <\/sup>of 96kHz FLAC high-resolution audio playback, or even up to 26 hours<\/a>[ii]<\/a> with the streaming service apps to meet the demand of consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sustainability in Mind<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new Walkman <\/sup>series is not only designed to be stylish but also with the environment in mind.
