I didn't realise you were using the ER4s. It may be a sweet spot for Astrapi. Anything below 32Ω, and perhaps up to 40Ω, proves to be problematic for Astrapi to properly supply with enough current. I've written about it here.
Did you ever measure the output impedance? I would think that's more of a limiting factor than the current delivery, based on what you've measured. My OPPO PM-3 sounds just fine with the Astrapi, and planar magnetic headphones are immune to the amp's output impedance.
