Sony India today announced the latest addition to the Walkman series family, NW-A306. Sony Walkman NW-A306 is a stylish, lightweight and compact music player and weighs 199 grams. It comes with a 3.6” touch screen and tactile physical music controls.
The NW-A306 incorporates the S-Master HX digital amp technology, independently developed for Walkman and is compatible with the native DSD format. It reduces distortion and noise across a wide range of frequencies, for rich and full-bodied sound, further enhanced by new high-quality sound lead free solder. It uses Edge-AI (Artificial Intelligence), DSEE Ultimate (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) which upscales compressed digital music files in real time.
Its premium aluminum milled frame provides superior rigidity for low impedance and clear, stable sound and solid bass. It applies a reflow soldering technique containing gold, whose effect is significant in the overall improved sound localization and wider sound space.
The NW-A306 has a battery life of up to 36 hours of 44.1kHz FLAC playback, up to 32 hours1 of 96kHz FLAC high resolution audio playback, or even up to 26 hours with the streaming service apps.
On this Walkman, consumers can enjoy DSEE Ultimate for upscaling their music whether it is Wi-Fi streamed or downloaded.
No plastic is used in the packaging material for the NW-A306, reflecting Sony’s commitment to reducing the environmental impact of its products and practices.
Priced at INR 25990, the NW-A306 Walkman will be available across all Sony Centres, major electronic stores, Headphone Zone and e-commerce portals in India from 9th February 2023 onwards.
