The Opus is an incredible DAC. I think a Zapfilter installed in the Opus will take it to a level I don't see leaving for a good time. Also, the difference in bass levels wasn't night and day. The Zhaolu just seemed a little more present there (subtle difference), but I don't doubt that adding the zap wouldn't bring it on par or better.
I would call the Opus pretty neutral, really. It's not exactly warm, but it's certainly not cold, either.
