DI20 : Great value - occasional hiccups with build quality

We use this as part of our band set up in church. We chose this product because you get two channels - i.e. two instruments can be plugged in which makes it high value.

Generally speaking these work really well. The pad is useful, the ability to switch between two channel is also useful - the sound quality seems fine.

Having bought a few of these though, we have noticed that the build quality has not robust enough and occasionally we've had popping/loud banging noises from one. Our context is a regular set up by volunteers which doesn't help in terms of taking care of equipment.

I'd say if you look after your gear you should be ok, and the overriding value of the item makes any potential breakages worthwhile.
