New Sony Firmware For HAPZ1ES Player


Sony has a network update available (today) for the HAPZ1ES server/player.  It upgrades the firmware and adds new features.  You also must update your remote software on your iPad or Tablet.  It all took less than 5 minutes.  Seems to be working fine, so far.

Yes they added Spotify. They didn't indicate new sound improvements I can recall. Maybe the app is more reliable now (both were updated). So far so good anyhoo. 
Guys-

can this device receive Hi-Rez downloads from the net?

Or, would said file have to be transferred from a PC or MAC (after being and stored as a download)?

Happy Listening!
As far as I know, no it can't download Hi-Rez files off the net.  You must download to main computer and then transfer to the Sony via the wired or wireless Ethernet.
