With great amounts of musical detail to enjoy consumers will feel as if they are really in the studio.

Sony has taken care of every detail and at every stage of the audio pathway Sony has upgraded with extensive use of thick film copper layer PCBs, high purity lead free solder and OFC (Oxygen Free Copper).

Moreover the overall sound quality of the Walkman has been increased by using components such as coils, MELF type resistors and film condensers. Plus the new Walkman by Sony will support the efficient LDAC codec.  

This is a new audio technology that has been developed by Sony and will be used in this Walkman that is now on display at CES 2015. This technology basically lets the consumers enjoy high quality wireless audio through Bluetooth technology.

Moreover this LDAC technology helps in transmitting data three times faster than previous Bluetooth connections. The new technology of LDAC thus provides enhanced wireless listening experience for all music.
