This has been my favourite piece of equipment for a decade. First owner and well looked after.
It was Stereophile Class A in its day and has had great reviews from everyone that has reviewed it. A true ES component that seems to be still in demand and in Japan it is going up in value if the Ebay prices are to be believed.
I have replaced the hard drive along the way and it has had an easy life.
For those that don't know the HAP-Z1ES is a storage and playback machine primarily. It can upgrade (right word?) everything to DSD. It can also stream Spotify or output to an external DAC through usb. The files are also discoverable by all my streamers as per a NAS drive.
It does have the obligatory white line on the screen which was very common in these units. Luckily mine is across the very top so has no real impact - plus I don't really use the screen. I use the App.
There is a tiny, tiny chip in the top right that you can only feel if you run a fingernail across it - have tried to photograph it.Plus another small mark on the top toward the back right that you can see from the top down shot.
I have the remote but not the original box but I do have an appropriate box for shipping in at buyer expense.
