SONY HAP Z1 ES - A No Nonsense Hi Res Audio Player Part 1

This player have been in my system for more than 2 years and it still amazes me how SONY engineered this masterpiece. Here in Malaysia, the unit is one of the unspoken hifi piece of equipment eventhough a number of audiophiles and reviewers does have at least one unit in their system. Some have 2 units.

I decided to do a feature on this unspoken unit and this is Part 1 as an introdution.
