Both are audio interfaces, $149 against $150. 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 2 reaches 100 dB on 562 of the 567 models here, the Zoom AMS-24 on 549.
| Specification | Arturia MiniFuse 2 | Zoom AMS-24 |
|---|---|---|
| Power into 32Ω | 139 mW | 30 mW |
| Power into 150Ω | 45 mW | 9.7 mW |
| Power into 300Ω | 24 mW | 5.2 mW |
| Power into 600Ω | 12 mW | 2.7 mW |
| Output impedance | 10 Ω | 10 Ω |
| Output noise | not published | not published |
| Price | $149 | $150 |
| Headphones it reaches 100 dB on out of 567 | 562 | 549 |
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.
13 headphones reach 100 dB on the Arturia MiniFuse 2 but not on the Zoom AMS-24 — HiFiMAN HE-6se V2, HiFiMAN HE6 Remastered, HiFiMAN Susvara, 10 more.
549 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 2 and Zoom AMS-24. Or put either against your own headphones in the source comparison tool.
