I/O: 500-series module - audio I/O via lunchbox/rack edge connector (no dedicated front-panel jacks)
Notes: HARDWARE 500-series module (mono), distinct from the rack Clariphonic MS (2-channel, $1999) and from the excluded 'Clariphonic Mk3' plugin. Kush's own page states 'signal path matches the original rack unit version' but gives no formal spec table; controls/topology detail sourced from Gearspace/press coverage of the NAMM 2014 launch, not Kush's page directly - flagged. year_intro 2014 based on 'NAMM 2014: Kush Audio Unveils Clariphonic 500' Gearspace thread. price_usd is current MSRP on thehouseofkush.com.
