REDDI Tube DI Mega-thread-III

[Bassworship1]

SteveC its still for sale and he's the one I told you about was willing to sale for 550 shipped. You won't find a better deal that that for one of these is great shape. If I hadn't already bought a new one I'd be all over it.

A Design is also coming out with a new DI preamp.. It has TONS of Gain if you want to drive a power amp. I saw a few photos from the AES show.. I posted photo that i have of eth prototype .. Its the KGB... Keyboard, Guitar Bass DI... I never saw the one with the EQ.. But Im thinking it will be a great device too.. All with those incredible custom Cinemag transformers.

Awesome...Very cool.
Of course amps are not going away but I said this before high end DIs with EQ possibilities are going to become more popular and more amps less production based touring in the future.

Does the Reddi have any "natural" compression happening via the tube or components?

To my ears, it's probably the very least compressed-sounding DI I've used. Does that mean it doesn't have any going on? Probably not as I've been told all tube amps have natural compression, and the REDDI is basically a tube amp in DI form. But I don't hear it that way.

 

[svtb15]

I dont detect compression... Its very dynamic and has more headroom than any DI that i have ever used... You can put a compressor inline after it if you wanted too do some compression though.... I use a BAC500 series 500 Copmpressor at times. But to me the REDDI is headroom city...

I've bit the bullet and have one on the way.

Congrats! You won't regret it.

Hey guys with deep regret I'm selling my new Reddi and a new waterproof Gator case for 700.00 plus actual shipping. Only because of sickness and unforeseen financial reasons. It's about 3 weeks old and new. If your reading this you know with the cSe and all and it new this is an amazing deal.

Sorry to hear that, bro. I know you really flipped over it. Hope it works out you can get another one sometime soon.

 

[Bassworship1]

Yeah I will definitely have another one. There worth every penny. My wife has just had to much sickness here lately.

 

[paparoof]

good luck to your wife sir.

 

[JimmyM]

Ya, really. Hope she feels better.

 

[svtb15]

I hope she is 100% well very soon

Hey guys, just a heads up, I have an EM Silver preamp for sale in the classifieds. Doesn't seem to be much interest in the post, maybe my price is too high?

Anyway, it's an absolutely killer frontend after the reddi (I have both). I tried a whole slew of pres all in a row with my bass + reddi, and the silver and the electrodyne 501 were my favorites.

 

[svtb15]

I have teh GOLD EM.. It is stunning on recordings. Ill take it to my grave...
