Listen on a higher level with this 32GB High-Resolution Audio-compatible Walkman that delivers up to 30 hours of studio-like clarity and sound. Listen without distraction with the included Noise Canceling headphones while you immerse your ears in glorious Hi-Res Audio or automatically upscaled versions of digital formats like MP3 and more. It’s music like it was meant to be.
Between smartphones and digital media players, a lot of people are carrying around an entire musical library in their purses pockets. But many of today’s media players sacrifice audio quality for the sake of storage capacity. Sony’s new version of the famous Walkman provides audiophiles with a compact digital music player that supports high-resolution audio and offers enough storage space to fit a substantial portion of your digital music collection. There’s also a microSD slot that accepts memory cards up to 128GB if you want to bring even more of your music library with you. Not only does this new Walkman support high-resolution audio files, but it also up-converts your existing mp3 collection to near high-resolution quality, as well. To ensure uninterrupted listening sessions, the Walkman comes with a pair of noise cancelling headphones, too. If you want to share your music with others or if you want to listen over a home stereo system, the Walkman has Bluetooth and NFC capability so you can stream songs to Bluetooth speakers or stereo receivers. This Walkman also features a rechargeable battery that’s good for up to 50 hours of playtime per charge cycle, so you can focus on the music instead of worrying about dead batteries.
High-Resolution Audio
Unlike many of today’s digital music players, Sony’s Walkman supports high-resolution audio. Typical CD-quality audio files use a 16 bit 44.1KHz sampling rate, but hi-res audio uses a 24 bit 96KHz sampling rate to create an incredible detailed and lifelike soundscape. The mp3 files you buy from any of the major online digital music retailers are encoded at less than 16 bit 44.1KHz sampling rates, so it’s not a stretch to say the Sony Walkman produces sound quality better than anything you’ve heard outside of a live performance. This digital music player can also up-convert your mp3 collection to near high-resolution quality so you can have the best listening experience possible regardless of what you’re listening to.
Plenty of Storage for Your Collection
High-resolution audio files are much larger than typical mp3 files. With that in mind, Sony designed this Walkman with 38 gigabytes of internal storage so you can add as much music as you want to the player. If you want your entire musical library in your pocket at all times, the Walkman also features a microSD slot that accepts cards up to 128 GB of storage capacity.
Bluetooth and NFC Streaming Technology
If you’d prefer to listen to music on larger speakers, the Sony Walkman offers Bluetooth and NFC wireless streaming functionality. If you own a NFC-capable stereo receiver or set of speakers, simply touch the Walkman to the device for instant wireless streaming. Even if you don’t have an NFC-enabled device, the Walkman can be paired with any Bluetooth speaker system or stereo receiver. To minimize sound quality loss while streaming music, Sony created LDAC, a proprietary wireless codec that provides a superior listening experience while streaming music wirelessly.
Noise-Cancelling Headphones
Immerse yourself deeper in the sound, thanks to the NW-A20 series’ exclusive bundled headphones. High-Resolution Audio compatible Noise Canceling mutes distractions from the world outside, so it’s just you and your music.
