Best box for my piezos

This Little power horse is a best to my piezos: PiezoBarrel for my Clarinet and Carlos Juan CS SENSOR, that I use for my acoustic guitar and my Sarangi.

It captures everything, which is great even for creative ideas or ideas that come up while exploring the various positions of the pickup on the instruments at hand.

It's light, very sturdy and the grip it has beneath the box, makes it very secure - on wooden plain surfaces, for example.

It's a purchaser I'll never regret.

A great deal you won't regret

I admit I was reluctant at the moment of the purchase.

I use this on a wide range of piezo - amplified instruments (kalimba, flute, acoustic guitar) and it has never disappointed me.

The quality of the sound is superb, I didn't even know that I could get that sound out of a DIY piezo mic.

Pros:

versatile, rugged, top quality sound

Cons:

only 48v phantom alimentation, price could be percieved as too high (but actually it isn't, totally worth it)

Great little DI box

It sounds good with piezos, it's small and super rugged.

In my opinion it only lacks an input pad.
