On the topic of power:

What exactly do these numbers mean? I know the creator of the O2 mentions Vrms, and JDS Labs is using that measurement for their C5 (600Ω: 4.146 VRMS), but what do the above measurements measure? Those above measurements are pretty commonly found in amplifiers from what I've seen (all the news of the FiiO E12 pumping 800+ mW @ 32 ohms). On Tyll's measurements from Innerfidelity, there is the "Power Needed for 90d BSPL" measurement, but it's on the order of 0.0X mW, not a few hundred.

O2 gets 353 mW @ 15 ohms, 534 mW @ 33 ohms, (interpolated by me) 272 mW or so @ 100 ohms, 94 mW or so @ 300 ohms, on a mid-high charge on battery
