Mark - The Shure’s work very well with the Sony. They were a great combination with my previous ZX2 and seem to really like to be on the end of the 1Z. As Chris mentions the 1Z lacks the ability to run the apps the ZX2 could but the 3.0 FW update enabled the USB DAC function so i think you can use it with something like an iPhone etc to provide a streaming connection. I’ve not tried this but have run the 1Z at home on the USB output of both my Melco and Roon Nucleus with very good results.

Thanks James , it’s a great project of an old barn which is ‘almost’ finished… Another month or so .
Steve, not one to give advise, but on this occasion, can I suggest an upgrade for use. I think it would be much nicer if you wore HAPPY SOCKS. They are not cheap, but really lift the whole embiance.
@CBR600 thanks for the advice. I didn’t think I needed it but Mrs AnnaLogg laughed at your comment, so maybe I was wrong 
I had noticed that socks seem to feature regularly in these photos so wondered if perhaps they were some sort of secret squirrel system tweak that I had not yet discovered so thought I would give them a try.
Alas using them with Fenchurch (my 272) all I noticed was a rather strange channel imbalance?
Perhaps the tweak was better suited to Trillian (my Qb)
Too be honest this was rather alarming and I wouldn’t recommend it - Supertramp on BBC 6 Music! Am I the only one who thinks 6 Music is slowly turning into Radio 2?

I’m not a fashion expert, but I think that having one sock inside out would be out of phase. Two different socks is like having different speakers - stand mounts in this case. Very Einsteinian.

You may be on to something there - either way, I am sure it affects the sound quality!

I thought I would finally participate. It’s impossible trying to get a decent picture in my tiny bedroom but here goes.
Speaker stands and additions to the rack are outstanding.
