Well, that's something that you can easily verify yourself...

Now, I think I'd go for the 799 too, in fact the only reason I considered the T30 (once upon a time) was because the 799 cost about 50 euros more, otherwise it really would have been an easy decision for me...

The distortion could either be because of the ear/headphones or simply because that after some point the amp gets louder by maxing all the EQ amplifications it has
(at least that's how most Sony Hi-Fis max their volumes, they give all the extra bass they have...).

Either way, I would suggest making a decision based on:
- If either one gets as loud as you want.
- At the volume you feel most comfortable with which one do YOU think has the best sound.
- Which has the best battery life.

Finally, let me remind you that you already paid for the 799 and if you have used it for a year now it must have proven to be a good buy.
Personally I would suggest get the most out of the device that you already have and once it reaches the end of its' existence then look for a replacement...

Whichever you choose, I hope it will satisfy you and give you many (more?) hours of happy listenings...

CheerS!
