Excellent Unit

A-dog 14.03.2019

These are the best DI boxes at this price point.

I use these in a church scenario, so having a large number of phantom powered DI boxes is a must. I have used ART products for years and I rate them very highly.

Pros
Hardy Unit, never fails, Switches work well, very useful and reliable connections. Excellent value for money.

Cons
Occasionally amateur musicians don't notice if the switches are pressed or not, but this is less a fault of the unit and more a lack of knowledge and experience or thoughtfulness on the part of the user.

Nice active DI

Really good DI for the price. Has every feature needed in a recording situation. And the best for me is that it has two possibilities of powering the device which is 9 volt battery or 48 volt phantom power from preamp.

Solid little box. The 9V battery is a plus.

A solid, reliable good sounding DI.

Very affordable unit that doesn’t compromise on sound quality. Whether it’s big rock shows or quiet acoustic gigs, these Art DI’s haven’t missed a step. I’d rather use these than any other DI box given their consistent reliability. The feature set is good too with pads, ground isolation and various other things you’d expect to find on a DI. 48V Phantom power works a treat so I haven’t used the 9V battery compartment but it’s good to know it’s there.
