Short answer
Both are audio interfaces, $149 against $129.
The Arturia MiniFuse 1 reaches 100 dB on 562 of the 567 models here, the Audient EVO 4 on 543.
| Specification | Arturia MiniFuse 1 | Audient EVO 4 |
|---|---|---|
| Power into 32Ω | 139 mW | 22 mW |
| Power into 150Ω | 45 mW | 14 mW |
| Power into 300Ω | 24 mW | 11 mW |
| Power into 600Ω | 12 mW | 10 mW |
| Output impedance | 10 Ω | 50 Ω |
| Output noise | not published | not published |
| Price | $149 | $129 |
| Headphones it reaches 100 dB on out of 567 | 562 | 543 |
Not published means the maker leaves it out, so that axis cannot be compared.

Neither column is a maker’s power rating at these loads. Of the 280 sources here, 209 publish a figure at at least one load; these two do not, so every row above is derived — between or beyond the loads each maker did publish, holding output voltage as the maker’s own figures imply. The method understates rather than flatters, but it is still arithmetic rather than a rating.
19 headphones reach 100 dB on the Arturia MiniFuse 1 but not on the Audient EVO 4 — Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Closed, Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Noire, Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Open, 16 more.
51 headphones are left alone by the Arturia MiniFuse 1 under the one-eighth rule but coloured by the Audient EVO 4 (AKG K612 Pro, Audeze LCD-3, Audeze LCD-4, 48 more).
543 of the 567 models here reach 100 dB on both.
Headroom is at a 100 dB SPL peak.
The widest gap on the list is the Shure SE846: Arturia MiniFuse 1 has +30 dB of headroom there against +22 dB. 8 dB is about 5.8 times the power, which matters for peaks rather than for how loud the music sits.
The hiss columns are empty for Arturia MiniFuse 1 and Audient EVO 4 because neither maker publishes no output noise figure.

The Arturia MiniFuse 1 costs $20 more than the Audient EVO 4. Out of the 567 models here, that difference buys 19 more models driven to 100 dB and 51 more models left alone under the one-eighth rule.
Nothing runs the other way: there is no axis here on which the cheaper of the two does better.
Only published figures count here; blank axes are counted separately.
