Notes: Only available as a 500-series single-channel module — no rack/1U 'EQ2' hardware currently offered (confirmed via search; a separate non-500 'EQ2' exists only as Plugin Alliance software, which is out of scope). year_intro '2013' is a FLAGGED INFERENCE from NAMM-2013-era references found via web search — not confirmed on maag.audio's own product page, treat with caution. Price ($745) is dealer street price from Perfect Circuit (searched Apr 2026), not listed on maag.audio. country_of_manufacture 'USA' inferred (see EQ4M notes).
