Notes: FLAG: DISCONTINUED per WesAudio's own products page (listed under its 'Discontinued' category), so it falls outside the brief's 'current models only' scope - included anyway because the task explicitly named 'Beta76' by model name for coverage; verify current availability (likely used/secondary market only) before surfacing to end users. Still digitally-controlled analog per corroborating dealer/forum info (USB total recall and plugin control), though this was not explicitly re-stated on its own (discontinued) product page. Superseded by ng76 which explicitly cites Beta76 as its design basis. price_usd, country_of_manufacture and year_intro left blank - no current MSRP or manufacture info found for a discontinued product; not stated on page.
