The TRN Azure Dragon is 32Ω at 108.0 dB (no reference unit printed); the TRN Conch is 30Ω at 114.0 dB (no reference unit printed). 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 Azure Dragon needs 6.0 dB more than the Conch to reach the same loudness — 0.16 mW against 0.04 mW.

| Sources that reach 100 dB out of 280 | 280 | 280 |
One caution before reading the rows. TRN Azure Dragon and TRN Conch printed a decibel figure with no reference unit, so this page reads it as per milliwatt. If it is really per volt, each of them needs far more than the table says. Why the two readings differ by so much.
Every source in the database that drives one of them drives the other. On power, the choice between these two changes nothing about what amplifier you need.
15 sources stay below the audible-hiss threshold with the Azure Dragon but cross it with the Conch (Lake People G103-S Mk II, Lake People G111 Mk II, Grace Design m900, 12 more).
280 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: TRN Azure Dragon and TRN Conch. Each figure on this page is labelled on those pages with where it came from, including the ones TRN never published — what that maker publishes, counted.
