The rolloff doesn't exist, thisp. 4G has a neutral and 'flat' response; 20-20k, nada rolloff... you're 'analytical data' conclusions are flawed for several reasons, not least of which is that you are searching for data to back up what you want to conclude, not evaluating (4G referenced) data neutral sets that have been out on the Internet months... iPodlounge refers to these, as do MANY other sites... there is lots of 'flex' in your conclusion, so much so that it is essentially a meaningless observation, if you stick to the graphs alone.
If graphs are your thing, here's a nice place to begin:

... bear in mind these measurements refer to the 3G; the LAST gen DAC from Wolfson, with measurably less low end than the 4G's new Wolfson DAC...
And thisp- at 44 years old, and making over $270k a year AFTER taxes, I have nothing to 'make up' except perhaps bedtime stories for my daughter...
You find other DAPs superior to the 4G iPod, that's cool. Let's just leave it at that, ok?
Peace.
