Major Roadrash Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Wondering of any owners of the Sony HAP-Z1ES have done any modifications and, if so, how good were the results? One thing I'm considering is replacing the IEC AC connector, since the stock connector doesn't hold my uber-expensive audiophile power securely. Any recommendations or suggestions?
