Overview

No gimmicks or frills, just the right stuff.

The DB-1's simple design offers reliable input jacks as well as a loop-through 1/4 in. jack. Plug any instrument level signal (and some line level) into the box, interface with a standard XLR mic cable into the Lo-Z output, and you're ready to plug the output directly into a mixing console. A ground lift switch is provided for buzz-free operation in almost any environment.

Features

  • Transforms Hi-Z 1/4 in. input to balanced Lo-Z XLR output
  • Heavy duty steel box
  • Superior quality connectors and transformer
  • Recessed connectors and switches to prevent damage
  • Ground lift switch to eliminate hum
  • Paralleled 1/4 inch output for on-stage monitoring
  • Individually tested for performance and quality

Order yours today for simplicity and reliability.
