Radial J48 Mk2 Active DI
Radial's boxes have quickly risen to the upper echelon of the DI Box world. The J48 is their standard meat and potatoes phantom powered DI box. It's got all the features you need, none that you don't, and it sounds amazing.
Every serious studio needs at least one J48.
The Radial J48 is a great sounding active direct box that has been optimized to produce maximum headroom while working within the limited current available from standard 48V phantom power. By employing a unique switching power supply, the J48 is capable of peak transients to 9 volts without choking. The result is lower harmonic distortion, half the inter-modulation distortion and significantly improved dynamics over other DIs.
Features include a -15dB pad, 180ยบ polarity reverse, a unique merge function to mix two signals to mono, an 80Hz high-pass rumble filter, and ground lift. Like all Radial products, the J48 is built to handle the abuse on the road and features a unique welded I-beam construction for years of trouble free performance. Radial J48 Mk2 Active DI Features :
