2. Yes, that's what I meant. I only tried a few.

Edited, thanks for helping me see that.

Would like to let everyone know that the Audio portion of the review is up and ready for you guys to read. @ DGriff0400: You might want to read this portion, DAC is mentioned.
I can provide a reference but this review I'm typing up here will also be going on Amazon once I'm done, links get removed on that site when it comes to their reviews.

This review should hopefully be wrapped up this weekend or at least July 4th due to Battery test, need loads of time for that - 48+ hours should be enough to do a few things. Hardware benchmarks are done, Pictures and video by next week or the following week after. Video Review script still being written, should be done tomorrow...

It's the output that is causing the 150ohm headsets not being powered enough. All the power in the z2 is being directed elsewhere and not enough is being tossed at the headphone jack for some odd reason. My 32ohm over the ear headset works just fine on the device though and requires me to lower the volume.
