With DSEE Ultimate, media players deliver high-quality sound even when playing via Bluetooth or using streaming services. According to the company, the Walkman NW-ZX700 series uses the same high-quality components as the flagship WM1 model, including FTCAP3 high-capacity polymer capacitors, an oxygen-free copper block housing, large coils, and high-quality gold-filled solder.
The specifications of the Walkman NW-ZX700 series include the high-performance S-Master HX digital amplifier, which reduces distortion and noise over virtually the entire frequency range, and the DSD remastering engine, which losslessly converts PCM audio to DSD at 11.2 MHz.
