Headroom Notes

The 2.1 V output is the only electrical figure AudioQuest states, and it appears in marketing prose rather than in a specification table; there is no output impedance, no power rating and no current draw anywhere on the product page. The 96 kHz ceiling is real and deliberate, not a typo.
