The Truthear Hexa is 20.5Ω at 103.1 dB/mW; the Truthear ZERO:BLUE2 is 5.8Ω at 97.1 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 ZERO:BLUE2 needs 6.0 dB more than the Hexa to reach the same loudness — 1.9 mW against 0.49 mW.
| Specification | Hexa | ZERO:BLUE2 |
|---|---|---|
| Impedance | 20.5 Ω | 5.8 Ω |
| Sensitivity | 103.1 dB/mW | 97.1 dB/mW |
| Sensitivity (voltage) | 120.0 dB/V | 119.5 dB/V |
| Power for 100 dB | 0.49 mW | 1.9 mW |
| Voltage for 100 dB | 0.10 V | 0.11 V |
| Current for 100 dB | 4.9 mA | 18.3 mA |
| Highest source impedance that leaves them alone (one-eighth rule) | 2.56 Ω | 0.72 Ω |
| Sources that reach 100 dB out of 280 | 280 | 280 |
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.
49 sources are low enough in output impedance for the Hexa under the one-eighth rule but not for the ZERO:BLUE2 (FiiO SnowSky Tiny B, FiiO KA13, FiiO KA15, 46 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: Truthear Hexa and Truthear ZERO:BLUE2. Every figure on this page comes from what Truthear published, or is derived from it — what that maker publishes, counted.
