Aune S17 Pro EVO vs Woo Audio WA6

Both are desktop amplifiers, $799 against $1099. 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 Aune S17 Pro EVO reaches 100 dB on 567 of the 567 models here, the Woo Audio WA6 on 566.

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.

The headphones that tell them apart

1 headphone reaches 100 dB on the Aune S17 Pro EVO but not on the Woo Audio WA6 — Symphonium Titan.

566 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.
