The Abyss AB-1266 Phi CC is 42Ω at 88.0 dB (no figure from the maker at all); the Abyss Diana V2 is 42Ω at 91.0 dB/mW. This page is only about what they ask of an amplifier — not how they sound, which no specification on either sheet can tell you.
The AB-1266 Phi CC needs 3.0 dB more than the Diana V2 to reach the same loudness — 16 mW against 7.9 mW.

| Sources that reach 100 dB out of 280 | 277 | 280 |
One caution before reading the rows. For Abyss AB-1266 Phi CC the maker publishes no sensitivity figure at all. The number in the table was collected when this database was first built and has never been traced to a manufacturer document, so treat every row below it as an estimate rather than a specification.
3 of the 280 sources have the power for the Diana V2 but not for the AB-1266 Phi CC — Apple USB-C dongle (EU), Steinberg UR22C, Sony NW-A306.
277 of the 280 sources here reach 100 dB on both. That count is about power only — the output-impedance and hiss lines above are separate questions, and a source can pass this one and fail those.
Each model has a page of its own with the full source list, the hiss estimate and the provenance of every figure above: Abyss AB-1266 Phi CC and Abyss Diana V2. Each figure on this page is labelled on those pages with where it came from, including the ones Abyss never published — what that maker publishes, counted.
