Played thru this Neve DI tonight. Wow!

[tb-player]

I normally keep a Khan Tube DI on (or next to) my pedalboard. It’s like a warm hug for my bass tone. But tonight, I had the opportunity to try out the Rupert Neve DI. It runs on phantom power and is, quite literally, the most transparent DI I’ve ever heard. Spectacular!

Yep. I solid piece of kit.

I do love mine, quite different from the tried and true Type 85 and vintage Jensen also in my trick bag.

I don't have the benefit of direct comparison with other DIs aside from what's built into pedals I've owned, live house DIs, etc. But it sounds fabulous and lets me run a very clear buffered signal as far as I want to a sound-isolated cabinet.

And I pretty much love the phantom power method of juicing it.
