FiiO SnowSky Tiny B vs JadeAudio JA11

Both are dongles, $22 against $20. 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 FiiO SnowSky Tiny B reaches 100 dB on 554 of the 567 models here, the JadeAudio JA11 on 547.

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

7 headphones reach 100 dB on the FiiO SnowSky Tiny B but not on the JadeAudio JA11 — Kinera Freya Vanir, Moondrop PARA 2, Moondrop VENUS, 4 more.

14 headphones are left alone by the JadeAudio JA11 under the one-eighth rule but coloured by the FiiO SnowSky Tiny B (64 Audio Nio, 64 Audio Volur, Campfire Audio Andromeda 2023, 11 more).

547 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.
