Great review, thanks! I pardon your French.
In response to the claims of "transportability"...I can confirm with certainty that the MDR-Z7's are not meant to leave the home in general.
There is a definite synergy between the PHA-3 and the MDR-Z7. Speaking with Mr. Nageno, I came to understand that the PHA-3 was worked on primarily by electrical engineers, while the MDR-Z7 was worked on primarily by acoustics engineers. However, these different engineers did collaborate together frequently while working on their respective products. I wouldn't go as far as to say that the MDR-Z7 was built specifically for the PHA-3 and vice versa,
Best Regards,

No headphone is lifelike neutral, all headphones are colored
...The mids were powerful and smooth, but in my opinion could have been dialed back a little to create even more spaciousness. In some songs, I did feel that the spaciousness was somewhat reduced by the slightly stronger than usual bass/mid presence.

A fellow reviewer in the room at the time noted the rather large amount of leakage coming from the vents as I tested the headphones. However, seeing that the MDR-Z7s aren't exactly meant to go anywhere but from room to room, I'm not too concerned with this issue.
