Notes: Manufacturer publishes two landing pages for the same product (/n22h and /n22h/hpamp) emphasizing different use cases (Cat5 snake vs. headphone amp) -- treated as one SKU, not duplicated. power_watts left blank in favor of more precise headphone output spec (950mW x2 @100 ohm high power / 112mW x2 @100 ohm low power) captured in notable_use, since power_watts field is intended for mains/AC wattage which is not published for this bus-powered unit. price_usd $179 confirmed by Sweetwater/multiple retailers (manufacturer UK store lists GBP 159).
