PRX —vs— Alba

KZ PRX and Meze Audio Alba solve the same IEM buying question from different hardware starting points. PRX uses 13.2mm Planar, while Alba uses 10mm Dynamic, so the comparison should start with architecture before moving to price or brand preference.

The electrical side also separates them: PRX lists 15Ω impedance and 94±3dB sensitivity, while Alba lists 32Ω and 109dB. Those numbers help predict phone friendliness, dongle headroom, and whether a listener should expect obvious volume differences at the same source setting.

For tuning context, PRX references V-Shape / Detail Neutral, and Alba references Musical Signature. The verdict section below keeps the lab notes short, but the paired specs make this page useful for deciding which model better fits daily listening, gaming, vocal music, or technical detail priorities.
