Haha yes I hear the difference only when I use full size headphones and an amp but without them and with only IEMs, I think the cowon outperforms the Z for some odd reason! Maybe its because I'm so used to the Cowon sound that I cant adapt to the Z .....but I have no idea why. Will need to test it out again today. I think the bass on the Z is quite muddy and for that reason, I prefer BBE.
The Z bass is muddy compared to the Cowon? Seriously? I love Cowon and owned most of their players, including the S9 and the previous generation players, but this is my first Sony player and the bass is a lot tighter than the S9, and doesn't have the bass roll off I keep encountering with BBE. I actually like my first Sony player.
