Echte is right. There is no such thing as the perfect rubber. In fact, I would go as far as to say there is not too "much" difference amongst modern rubbers all together. Knowing the basic properties, which only comes with trying many different rubbers should be enough for you to make a decision.
As for basic properties of these 2:
The O7P has a noticeably softer topsheet and slightly softer sponge than DNA M. Meanwhile the DNA M has a softer topsheet than older generation ESN rubbers. That should be enough objective information to determine which you would like more.
Personally, I prefer the opposite of Der Echte. I lean towards the hardest rubbers (both topsheet and sponge) on hard and stiff blades. Even the lightest hint of "mushiness" is a turn off for me. That's why subjective reviews can go either way.
As for the OP. Having used both for about a month, objective: springiness, grip, and durability goes to O7P. Subjective: I prefer the DNA because it feels more direct/precise. I also much prefer the O7 Asia and DNA H to their medium versions.
