NW-A46HN

The NW-A46HN is an A Series Walkman offering 32 GB storage for APE and MQA playback along with MP3, WMA, AAC, FLAC, ALAC, AIFF, and Linear PCM. It uses a 45-hour lithium-ion battery with digital noise cancellation, S-Master HX, and bundled earphones.

The A46HN extended that same mature A platform upward in storage while keeping its role as the compact serious-listener Walkman below the ZX line. The significance remains the same: not radical, just very resolved. This is the kind of model that only appears once a line has stabilized.
