Fields to Compare Next

The sensitivity figures use different voltage/power references. Do not compare their numerical values directly; verify the same reference, frequency and measurement conditions first.

Alba's record cites Meze Audio (checked 2026-09-09); Chu II's cites MOONDROP (checked 2026-09-09). The linked source records below preserve the exact URLs and model-specific limitations. A retailer listing and a manufacturer sheet are not independent matched measurements.

Alba appears in the historical $100-$200 band and Chu II in $0-$50. Compare the exact edition, accessories and current delivered price before treating the bands as a budget difference; neither band proves better value.
