Outputs and power
Not stated: supply voltage.
The detailed table's row is labelled drive voltage (original: 驱动电压) but its values are in mW: 900mW@32Ω and 1800mW@600Ω (3.5 SE low/high gain), 1800mW@32Ω and 3800mW@600Ω (4.4 BAL low/high gain). The label and unit disagree, and the values (more power into 600Ω than 32Ω, several watts from a bus-powered dongle) do not read as output power. Recorded as written with eligible_for_estimate false; the main session should decide whether to show them.
The table pairs low gain with a 32Ω load and high gain with a 600Ω load (row: speaker impedance, original: 喇叭阻抗), so each SNR, distortion, dynamic range and crosstalk figure applies to that gain and load combination only.
