Notes: FLAG device_class judgment call: classified as Headphone Amp / Distribution (built-in DAC noted) rather than AD/DA Converter since it is marketed primarily as a headphone amp/preamp; analog_or_digital set to 'digital' per task guidance. Internal DAC chip: ESS-Tech ES9026 PRO. Price is EUR-only (EUR 2,299.00 incl. VAT) so price_usd left blank per rule. No AES/EBU digital input on this model (unlike V590² variants). Sibling brand of Lake People.
