Increased headroom, uncompromising sound.

The Radial J48 is a great-sounding active direct box that has been optimized to produce maximum headroom while working within the limited current available from standard 48V phantom power. By employing a unique switching power supply, the J48 is capable of peak transients to 9 volts without choking. The result is lower harmonic distortion, half the intermodulation distortion and significantly improved dynamics over other DIs.Features include a -15dB pad, 180 degree polarity reverse, a unique merge function to mix 2 signals to mono, an 80Hz high-pass rumble filter, and ground lift. Like all Radial products, the J48 is built to handle abuse on the road and features a unique welded I-beam construction for years of trouble-free performance.

With our Guaranteed Lowest Price, you can be assured of complete satisfaction and the lowest available price, or your money back!

  • Great for studio and stage

    As reviewed by Grizzly on 8/29/2006

    I picked up one of these last year for the studio and found it equally useful on stage. It has excellent clean/low noise sound characteristics necessary for recording and live performance. In the studio it's handy to be able to connect it to a mic preamp which doesn't have it's own DI input. Just switch on the +48V phantom power on your mic pre and you're ready to go. The direct thru is another convenient feature in the studio for connecting a tuner or amp when recording electric guitar or bass. On stage, it's nice to have a noise eliminating DI box which can plug into any of the phantom powered mic inputs on the house PA system.

  • Every Studio Needs One

    As reviewed by Studio 139 on 8/24/2006

    Direct boxes may not be flashy, but they make a huge difference to signal quality in any studio at any level. This active direct box has a plenty of head room for bass guitars or analog synthesizers. The sound is clean, quiet and rich. It is instant improve in your signal chain well worth every cent.
