RE: Sony HAP-Z1ES and formats

Posted by Dennis1 on March 20, 2017 at 12:59:56:
You can connect a CD to the HAP as well as an external DAC with software upgrade provided by Sony - (using new DAC is improvement)
From Sony:
You can connect an external CD drive to the EXT port on the rear panel of the HDD AUDIO PLAYER and use the [Import CD] function to copy music files stored on a CD directly to the internal hard disk drive of the HDD AUDIO PLAYER. The music files copied from the CD can be played or viewed for music information on the screen in the same way as music files transferred from your computer.
Note
Be sure to use an external CD drive that is powered through the AC adaptor and connect it to a power outlet. Successful operations with power supply from the HDD AUDIO PLAYER are not guaranteed.
Compatible with USB 2.0.
You cannot simultaneously use multiple external CD drives connected with a USB hub.
During playback of a file, if you start preparing for the [Import CD] function, the playback stops
