Hmmm, decisions, decisions... The Topping A90/D90 combo, Burson Conductor 3X or Sony TA-ZH1ES for my MDR-Z1R and IER-Z1R cans and IEM? Price difference is insignificant between the three options. I just want the best sound.

For IEM I would think nothing would compare to 50vm measurements

Z1R IEM is the hulk of in ears, harder to drive than many full size cans 😊
40 Ohms mate!

That's not ture. they are extremely easy to drive like any other IEM. They don't much current as the voice coil is tiny.

They are reveling and they need a high quality gear but not power hangry.

Being 40ohm will make it easier to pair with wider gear compare to very low impudence.

So which gear of those 3 options should I get?

The A90 for sure as an amplifer. But for the DAC you can get D90/SMSL M400/M200 with AKM-4497 warm sounding or any other good DAC you like. You may try chord qutest.

I preordered this amp - can't wait. Was in the market for a new amp and the timing is nice, its feature set and measurements are quite good.

Hope it pairs nicely with micro BL. I really like that they included 4.4mm balanced as all my headphones have that cable option now.
I am currently using arcam rhead so would be an interesting comparison.
