Notes: Clones the transformerless 1984 'Double Balanced' console-style circuit (Neumann/console lineage). Product page explicitly states: 'This is the 500 series module only! It will not work in any of the SCA chassis!' FLAG: genuine API 500-series-compatible module -- distinct from SCA-proprietary-format 'C84' classic-series module. Available as DIY kit or assembled.
