Orly?
I didn't know that you could get required voltage from a power supply < 12 V DC
They take less current, yeah but if this were true then electrostats would be small time for portables- and yet portables consistently struggle to provide the bias that a lot of electrostats need.
If you'd like to provide some calculations or theories, I'll gladly read them.
Efficiency (sensitivity) is more an issue for volume from portables [which IMO is not an issue within reason because most portables go very loud], but portables are better at providing current than voltage, arent they?
