Both are audio interfaces, $149 against $149. This page puts them side by side on the only three things a maker can be held to — power, output impedance and noise — and then asks the question that actually matters: which headphones do they treat differently?
The Arturia MiniFuse 1 reaches 100 dB on 562 of the 567 models here, the PreSonus Studio 24c on 552.
| Specification | Arturia MiniFuse 1 | PreSonus Studio 24c |

| Power into 150Ω | 45 mW | 18 mW |
| Power into 300Ω | 24 mW | 8.8 mW |
| Power into 600Ω | 12 mW | 4.4 mW |
| Output impedance | 10 Ω | not published |
| Output noise | not published | not published |
| Price | $149 | $149 |
| Headphones it reaches 100 dB on out of 567 | 562 | 552 |
A figure marked not published is missing from the maker’s own material, which is not the same as being good or bad. Where one of these two publishes a number and the other does not, the comparison on that axis cannot be made at all — and saying so is more useful than guessing.
10 headphones reach 100 dB on the Arturia MiniFuse 1 but not on the PreSonus Studio 24c — HiFiMAN HE-6se V2, HiFiMAN HE6 Remastered, HiFiMAN Susvara, 7 more.
552 of the 567 models here reach 100 dB on both. That is a power count and nothing more; whether either source suits a given headphone also depends on the two lines above.
Each has a page of its own with every power figure traced to what the maker published and a full headphone list: Arturia MiniFuse 1 and PreSonus Studio 24c. Or put either against your own headphones in the source comparison tool.
