The DN100 has become an
established favourite amongst both
engineers and musicians alike. Withits
high headroom, dynamic response
and sonic clarity, DN100 faithfully
reproduces the character of electric
and acoustic instruments and allows
far more of the detail of musical
performances to be captured.
DN100 is intended for professional
applications where +48 V phantom
power is a standard feature on all mixing consoles, and its innovative
design results in a signi cantly higher clipping point than many other
active DI Boxes, providing +10dBu output into a 2 kΩ load. Thisincreased
headroom means that much higher level input signals can be
accommodated without the need for an attenuating pad. Combined with
a very low noise input circuit topology, DN100 o ers a very wide dynamic
range, and only requires a single -30 dB pad for use when connecting
directly to instrument ampli eroutputs.
DN100 is built to handle the rigours of life on the road, a thick aluminium
extrusion protects the electronics, and in turn is covered by a tough silicone
rubber sleeve.
