Comparison Notes

Meze Audio Alba and Moondrop Chu II solve the same IEM buying question from different hardware starting points. Alba uses 10.8mm Dynamic, while Chu II uses 10mm Dynamic, so the comparison should start with architecture before moving to price or brand preference.

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