We only build several engineering samples at this stage, so I don't have any measurements available. The C9 offers many different options, tube vs SS, Class A vs Class AB, Standard mode vs Pure Power Amp mode, etc. the power rating will probably end up as a fairly complicated table. If we are referring to the maximum output setting, the the output of C9 should be way beyond 800mW@32Ω, the E02 is discrete Class AB rated at 600mW@32Ω, The N3Pro is rated at 800mW@32Ω, the C9 is a lot more powerful then these two.
When I said "IEMs remain as the primary target of C9 portable headphone amp. ", I means we have to make sure C9 works well with most IEMs in the market. The last thing we want is for C9 to become overpowered for most IEMs, but at the same time, not as good as desktop headphone amplifier at similar price. I did come across very well-received products that give me exactly this feeling,
On the other hand, the statement didn't really stated that C9 will not work well with full size headphones. We just don't aimed at that, and we don't use full size headphone as the benchmark when we find tune the audio performance of C9.
