Nice DI - Class A Stereo DI
Short description:
The Phoenix Audio “Nice DI” is a high-quality, active, Stereo DI, with Class A, discrete, high-
impedance inputs (10M), and Class A, discrete, transformer balanced outputs.
The Phoenix Audio Class A, all discrete, Stereo DI has been tested and used by many guitar
professionals in studio recording environments, and the comments are always the same.....The
overdrive is fantastic, the guitar sounds clean, clear, and un-restrained. This is the definitive
DI!!!. The DI’s characteristics are very noticeable on any input source, and is superb for
“sweetening” the output from DAW or any other signal source.
Specifications
Class A Stereo DI Output specs.
Gain range : 30dB
Frequency Response
:
20Hz to 20Khz +/- 0.5dB
Maximum Output
:
+26dBu @ 1Khz
Noise
:
–90dB @ 22Hz to 22KHz
Advantages
:
The Class A DI has a very high input impedance (10Mohm), without the use of FET's.
This means that the guitar pickups are not loaded as with a lower impedance input, and so allows every
transient to be reproduced, making even a cheap guitar sound exceptional.
Inputs: 1/4" jack (TS) input on the front panel
Output configuration
:
Transformer isolated, balanced output (XLR) on the rear panel and a 1/4" jack
(TS) unbalanced output on the front panel.
Other features
:
Stereo Unit with independent gain control, mains operated, switchable input voltage
(110/220Vac)
The result is a brighter, clearer sound. A transformation of your instrument. And a
STEREO unit for the price of many mono units.
