Notes: device_class judgment call: this is the user-facing per-musician mixer half of the two-part Hear Back PRO system, classed as Personal Monitoring per field guidance; the companion Hub is listed separately as Stagebox / Expander. Signal path is digital (Gigabit Ethernet network) but presents analog I/O to the user, per field guidance. channel_count=138 quoted verbatim from manufacturer ("local control of up to 138 channels of audio" = 128 channels + stereo AUX + up to 4 stereo intercom inputs, firmware V6+); earlier firmware (V1-V2) supported only 18 channels. Price not published by manufacturer; third-party retailers bundle it into 4-pack system packages rather than list standalone pricing, so left blank rather than guess. country_of_manufacture set to USA per manufacturer background info (Hear Technologies is based in Pelham, Alabama); not explicitly restated on this product page. Headphone power output by load: 8ohm 1.2W, 16ohm 1.6W, 25ohm 2.0W, 32ohm 1.8W (THD<0.01%).
