The Radial JDV Mk3 is arguably the most advanced and sonically superior direct box made today. With 100% class-A circuit and a 30-Volt internal rail voltage, the JDV combines exceptional sonic quality and unmatched dynamic handling for the most natural and uncolored sound possible.
Designed as a creative tool, the JDV introduces a concept of ‘Zones’ with choice of two inputs, four instrument amplifier outputs, and a unity-gain transformerless output.
Features include Drag control for precise pickup load correction, 3.9 meg-ohm input impedance for piezo pickups, hi-pass and lo-pass filters, full LED status indicators, polarity reverse and all of the other features one would expect from a Radial DI.
The Radial JDV Mk3 is designed for use in both the studio and live performance and is suitable for all instruments where added reach is required and retaining the original sound of the instrument without distortion or coloration is paramount.
As with all Radial products, the JDV is built like a tank to provide years of trouble-free performance. A welded I-beam internal skeleton provides a separate housing for maximum protection against external forces, which may cause stress on the PC board assembly while the outside bookend cover provides a protective zone for the switches, potentiometer and connectors. A full bottom no-slip pad performs double duty by keeping the JDV from sliding around when placed on a vibrating amplifier while also providing electrical and mechanical isolation.
