J 48 : Best DI box

6 years ago

I spent weeks researching the best DI box to buy and out of all the various reviews, demos and various top 10 lists, this DI came up trumps every time. Yes you can get cheaper DI boxes but nothing compares to the form, functionality and sound quality of this box, and when professional engineers say they're still using the same box 20 years on, you know its a worthwhile investment. Buy once; buy right; buy this box.

The DI is loud, clear and high fidelity. I'm currently using it to record guitars for our first album while having the facility to reamp them at a later date should we need to. You can send the signal through to the amp and also take a DI incase it's not exactly the sound you're after which stands to save us thousands of pounds so we're not using the studio to get the perfect take, instead we can use the studio to tweaking the tone on takes we already have. After lockdown, when we can get back in to rehearsal I'll also be using it live to sum stereo synth outputs to one xlr for live too
