Details

I/O: Line I/O on RCA; digital I/O unbalanced RCA (S/PDIF); two independent 6.35mm stereo headphone outputs
Notable use: Live covert surveillance signal enhancement between microphone probes and headphones for law enforcement, security, and counter-terrorism agencies; real-time communication clarity and transcription aid
Notes: FLAGGED - forensic/security-surveillance speech enhancer, not a studio/broadcast restoration unit; included under the task's 'forensic restoration' in-scope allowance, but is arguably closer to a security/intelligence product than pro-audio studio gear - flagging the inclusion as a judgment call. device_class set to 'Hardware Effects' per guidance (no dedicated forensic-hardware leaf exists). price_usd is Odyssey ProSound street price; CEDAR's own site is POA and references a 2024 permanent 30% cut vs 2023 list without publishing figures - FLAGGED basis. Dimensions 164x110x44mm, weight <500g per official key-features page (same chassis as DNS 2).
