Sadowsky Bass Preamp DI/Phantom Yes/No?

So... I have a recently aquired Sadowsky Bass Preamp DI. Although it is not powered by phantom, does anyone know if the unit can be damaged if Phantom is accidentally turned on?

I have a friend who lost his Radial Bass Tone Bone to Phantom. I have the EBS Micro Bass II, which does a lot but sometimes I need a smoother sounding DI. The Sadowsky fits this situation nicely. I just want to make sure it does not get damaged.

I sent a note to the Sadowsky website/email but I have not received a response.

Thanks

How long ago did you send the email?

I'd be surprised if Roger didn't protect it against this. I'm even more surprised the Radial didn't

Send it again. They are usually pretty prompt.

If you're in the US. Call.

Hey. I talked to Kevin at Sadowsky today about something else. Your question came to mind.

It IS protected against phantom.
