Which goes to show exactly why this is a ridiculous metric. If you can't tell in everyday use, then it's really not very meaningful. Sound is such a subjective thing anyway.

I would like to see some hard numbers on the output, though.
An audiophile wouldnt be using an internet tablet as an audio source -.- hence why it should have an EQ as most people actually do prefer to set the sound after their own liking, as you say yourself - sound is a subjective thing, so EQ is a definate must for headphone use. You can definately tell the difference between an EQ capable dap and the n800. About your numbers, run an RMAA test yourself if you're so interested in seeing numbers, personally I have better things to do.
