Double Bass Single Channel Preamp

This is a great piece of kit, a Broughton Audio DI-Hpf. Unfortunately I bought it as part of a short run and it’s now out of production but it’s probably the last piece of kit I’d ever part with. It has variable input impedance, hpf and gain. Plus phase reverse. I’ve never used it straight into a power amp but, in front of a Puma, the amp’s front end never needs adjusting.

If you find one used, bite the man’s arm off!

Sounds like Broughton's missing out on an excellent business opportunity to put these back into production. I don't think I've ever heard a negative word about them. Can someone who knows Broughton make this case to him? It just makes good business sense to make more of these.

Anybody can do that. Just use the form at the bottom of the "Archive" page.

In the past, we (Broughton fans) were able to persuade Josh Broughton to revive some of the discontinued products by using the form in the Archive...

Btw: I love my HPF DI...
