Behringer DI100 Ultra-Di Aktive DI Box

The Behringer DI100 Ultra DI is the perfect accessory to my home music study. It is light and easy to handle. I mainly use it for my PA system during rehearsals. For the price it is more that satisfactory.

Great budget DI box

Great budget DI box, never had an issue with signal or interference, extremely useful amount of settings available on the box too!

Definitely a work horse, have had it for a few years and has never let me down!

Good object!

For those who connect hi-z instrument to an external card it is a great help, especially if the external adapter has the phantom. Used with guitar or bass does get a signal a bit 'more present to the board: of course, the DI100 is not an amplifier with gain, we can not expect miracles - but if your sound card has the gain on the input that can work definitely better and the resulting signal has a better quality. Recommended for "home" situations.

Good and inexpensive

This DI is built like a tank and for the price it cannot be beaten. The sound reproduction is very good for live use, to the point that I have also used it for studio recording without any huge issue. At this price point it is a no brainier and I would not hesitate to buy another one.

very nice for the money

I have been having this DI for a couple months, used it almost every day since with bass (p- style 4 strings passive) and i have to say it sounds pretty decent, it works well both into an audio interface (old one) and into a PA system for rehearsals. i am satisfied with the product and, last but not least, at this price you are not even getting a quarter of a decent sounding box. right on!

Super DI Box

I have several of these behringer DI100 Ultra-DI boxes and they have all worked without fault for many years. I have used with keyboards and acoustic guitars and they boost the signal into the desk and provide a very clear pure sound. Every working musician should have one of these value for money DI units, works with phantom power!

Sweet

This product is quality!

The guitar sounds crystal clear coming through it and, even better, is only ¤44!!

I would definitely recommend to any acoustic guitar players who play live regularly, you won't be disappointed!

fantastic quality to price ratio

We've just bought more of these after using four for a number of years with no significant wear and tear issues. Pads and lifts both work well and aren't noisy. Battery life is good, although we have mostly run on phantom.

The Ford Focus of DI boxes

It's really hard to beat this DI. It's not the absolute best in terms of sound quality, and it can get a little bit hissy when gained right up at the desk, but you really can't break it, and you see it used right across the industry spectrum, from the lowest technological gigs up to some surprising heights.

We must have over 20 of them and they just do what you need day in, day out, at a great price.

They've been making these for over 10 years now so they must be doing something right.

Just grand

This is a fine DI box. It is very sturdy and durable making it perfect for extensive gigging purposes. It can be powered via phantom power so it is not necessary to keep spare batteries all the time. However, it is obviously important to remember to switch phantom on. You'd be surprised how it can slip the mind! My only annoyance is that requirement to use an XLR cable between the box and the mixing desk. This is only due to the fact a friend recently bought a DI that allows him just use a jack to jack cable between the box and the desk. Perhaps I should have conducted more research before buying! Regardless, I have had no issues with this box and it continues to serve me very well.

Excellent DI unit

The Behringer DI100 Ultra-DI is the best DI unit I have. For the Price the Quality is surprisingly good and would easily stand up to some of the more expensive units. The ground lift is functional and the dB filters are excellent. I use a few of these in all of my studio and live applications and it works well with all kinds of instruments. Highly Recommended.

Solid and trusted

Behringer is one of those brands that people either love or hate. Personally beringer make some real gems which are sold at very reasonable prices. The DI100 DI box is one of these. Having purchased multiple DI boxes over the years I have found the Behringer to be well worth the money. I have purchased these for both myself and other clients. These clients range from churches, bands to schools. In all the time I have used them I have never had an issue. The boxes are well built and feel solid. The rubber edges make them more durable especially when they are on a stage floor. There are two pads which help adjust signals that are two high. From a price perspective they are excellent. Sound quality is good and unless you are running the highest quality PA and with the top musicians these will sound perfectly fine.

These are a solid and trusted unit which I always keep in my box.

Value for money

I play electro-acoustic guitar in my band, and go straight into the PA. This is fine when we have our own PA, but frequently we have to use the venue's PA and mixing desk. You can face various situations:

- XLR cable snake to a mixing desk 20m away;

- No DI boxes available;

- Mixing desk is low quality with only mic inputs;

- Mixing desk has no phantom power.

I have had all these, and a DI box like this is invaluable because it can be battery or phantom powered, it has pad switches to reduce the output, and it is robust and cheap! If I was using my own DI all the time I would proably get a more expensive "industry-standard" DI, but this is fine for occasional use.

Behringer makes available DI with a decent sound.

Not so long ago, we began to use them. Picking up the Di-box, immediately noticeable as it is made: good build, robust metal housing, a lot of useful buttons attenuation. He was tested on acoustic guitars and bass, and showed himself confident.

Great splitter boxes for stage and studio

We got three of these fir road and recording applications. Despite being thrown around a bit on stage and stepped on quite a few times, they have shrugged all that off. The splitter ability and phantom power options have proved particular useful, even just to change from jack to xlr connection. Love 'em!
