Ibasso D7 or D4 for AKG q701... or another amp/dac less than $200

Basically what the title says I want to get a usb amp/dac for my q701s but I'm not sure which is better or if there is a better option available. I know the D7 gets good reviews but the D4 cost more so I just want to confirm which one is the better buy.

I'm currently powering my Q's with a D4 (w/topkit from HiFlight).  It does an admirable job with the Q's.  They're not bass light or thin and the soundstage is fantastic.  I have the D7 on order (hoping for delivery this Thursday), so I'll be able to compare them side by side by next week.  I'll share some initial impressions once the D7 arrives.
