Warm Audio DIP Direct Box (Passive)

Warm Audio's Direct Box Active and Direct Box Passive represent a new standard in professional DI technology, built around the legendary CineMag USA transformer topology that sets them apart from every other DI box on the market. These units are constructed with premium discrete components and housed in rugged aluminium chassis featuring switches, knobs and connectors engineered to withstand the rigours of touring and studio work. The custom-wound CineMag USA transformer ensures maximum sonic integrity, while the extruded aluminium enclosure guarantees longevity even under heavy professional use.

Both models feature an onboard variable pad knob offering exceptional versatility, allowing you to attenuate input signals from -3dB all the way down to -30dB to handle any instrument source with ease. The convenient Thru-put jack, jumpered to the input, lets you send your instrument's signal to multiple destinations simultaneously - perfect for feeding both your live mixer and recording setup. These DI boxes excel at converting high impedance, unbalanced instrument signals to low impedance, balanced outputs at proper voltage levels, eliminating the connection issues that cause tonal shifts and distortion.

The Direct Box Active works brilliantly with instruments featuring passive pickups, particularly acoustic instruments, though it can also operate in passive mode for added flexibility. Meanwhile, the Direct Box Passive excels at balancing signals from instruments with active electronics, yet still performs exceptionally well with passive pickups by producing a frequency range that surpasses most passive DI boxes available today. Both units maintain warm, rich tone even after long cable runs, making them ideal for any guitarist, bassist, keyboardist or electronic musician seeking uncompromising sonic quality.
