Honestly, Sony DAPs measured at ASR or L7 Audiolab thus far have been really really poor.

I'd not get my hopes up, if I were you.

In the meantime, instead of waiting for Sony to get it's shit together, check out the few DAPs that actually perform really well.

It will outspec the previous entry dap from sony. But it is gonna be a stretch beat offerings like the Shanling m3 ultra or even the M3X which you can still get from linsoul. The zx707 does look like the much better option of the 2. As for use as a dac it will be interesting to see how it compares to the apple dongle

no, it's gibberish, I think something must have got lost in translation between engineering and marketing (and finding this JEITA standard for power measurement is isn't turning up much).

No, I was comparing them based on mainly youtube reviews. I wish I could test them along with different other headphones before ordering, but unfortunately, these headphones weren't available at the time at musical shops where I live.

my fear is that I'm going to switch between hd600s and meze 99s and forget to turn the gain switch on my amp off then rupture my eardrums

do you think something like that adapter could reduce it enough to prevent them from deafening me if that happened?
