The AKG K702 is 62Ω at 92.9 dB/mW; the ZMF Atrium is 300Ω at 96.0 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 AKG K702 needs 3.1 dB more than the ZMF Atrium to reach the same loudness — 5.1 mW against 2.5 mW.
| Specification | AKG K702 | ZMF Atrium |
|---|---|---|
| Impedance | 62 Ω | 300 Ω |
| Sensitivity | 92.9 dB/mW | 96.0 dB/mW |
| Sensitivity (voltage) | 105.0 dB/V | 101.2 dB/V |
| Power for 100 dB | 5.1 mW | 2.5 mW |
| Voltage for 100 dB | 0.56 V | 0.87 V |
| Current for 100 dB | 9.1 mA | 2.9 mA |
| Highest source impedance that leaves them alone (one-eighth rule) | 7.75 Ω | 37.50 Ω |
| Sources that reach 100 dB out of 280 | 280 | 277 |
3 of the 280 sources have the power for the AKG K702 but not for the ZMF Atrium — Apple USB-C dongle (EU), Steinberg UR22C, Sony NW-A306.
19 sources are low enough in output impedance for the ZMF Atrium under the one-eighth rule but not for the AKG K702 (Zoom AMS-22, Arturia MiniFuse 2, Arturia MiniFuse 1, 16 more).
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: AKG K702 and ZMF Atrium. Every figure on this page comes from what AKG and ZMF published, or is derived from it — what AKG publishes and what ZMF publishes, both counted.
