The AKG K612 Pro is 120Ω at 91.8 dB/mW; the Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Closed is 13Ω at 90.0 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 Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Closed needs 1.8 dB more than the AKG K612 Pro to reach the same loudness — 10 mW against 6.6 mW.
| Specification | AKG K612 Pro | Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Closed |
|---|---|---|
| Impedance | 120 Ω | 13 Ω |
| Sensitivity | 91.8 dB/mW | 90.0 dB/mW |
| Sensitivity (voltage) | 101.0 dB/V | 108.9 dB/V |
| Power for 100 dB | 6.6 mW | 10 mW |
| Voltage for 100 dB | 0.89 V | 0.36 V |
| Current for 100 dB | 7.4 mA | 27.7 mA |
| Highest source impedance that leaves them alone (one-eighth rule) | 15.00 Ω | 1.62 Ω |
| Sources that reach 100 dB out of 280 | 277 | 272 |
6 of the 280 sources have the power for the AKG K612 Pro but not for the Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Closed — Zoom AMS-22, Audient EVO 4, Tascam US-2x2HR, 3 more.
1 of the 280 sources has the power for the Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Closed but not for the AKG K612 Pro — Sony NW-A306.
23 sources are low enough in output impedance for the AKG K612 Pro under the one-eighth rule but not for the Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Closed (FiiO KA13, Zoom AMS-22, Arturia MiniFuse 2, 20 more).
271 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: AKG K612 Pro and Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Closed. Every figure on this page comes from what AKG and Dan Clark Audio published, or is derived from it — what AKG publishes and what Dan Clark Audio publishes, both counted.
