What makes Ref 7 so expensive is it has to have doubled analog circuitry for balanced operation, just compare ref 8 and ref 9 prices. Maybe Kingwa will make a SE neutral dac at the same price point as the ref 9, but I think if you're going SE you might as well go with their "slightly" more musical line, because imo neutral benefits especially from good technical ability and I think balanced adds a good amount to that.
