"Stop searching... your DI troubles are solved."

Feature:
There's a number of cool things it can do... but I'm just DI'ing it no need yet for the other bits...

Quality:
TANKS should be built this well...

Value:
I'd pay more but I'm glad I didn't have to.

Desirability:
I want the JDI rack for my synths now

Sound:
I used this on my 6 string bass... WOW! I was having a bit of a hate on for the bass as I felt it was a bit lack luster going through my other passive DI box. This was different... no lie my B string sounded tighter, and the pups on the bass sounded clearer. I will not let this DI box go - EVER!

Ease of Use:
plug-n-play not pray

Support:
They're Canadian... so polite.

Overall:
The search is over.

Radial JDI mk3 Direct Box Customer Review

Quality:
Weights a lot, but it is hardcore and won't break. We use the JDI and J48s all the time. Great sound and reliable.

Sound:
The very best passive DI you can buy, clean rich and pure tone.

Description

From Our Catalog
The Radial JDI is considered by many to be the world’s finest direct box. It is a passive DI that employs a Jensen isolation transformer for optimum audio performance offering outstanding linearity at all frequencies, combined with extraordinary level handling without introducing distortion. Being completely passive, the plug & play JDI does not require any powering and has the unique advantage of eliminating 60-cycle ground loops. This makes the JDI a definite favorite with informed audio engineers. The JDI is great for guitars, bass, and keyboards and is particularly adept with high-output, broadband instruments such as active instruments and digital keyboards. The JDI may be rack-mounted using the J-Rak and is also available in a stereo (2-channel) version called the JDI Duplex and the 6-channel rack-mountable JD6.
