Roland Rock Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) I bought this brand new about a year and a half ago to keep as a backup in my gigbag in case my amp ever packed up mid-gig. That has never happened, and I'm now trying to sell a few bits that I don't use to justify a new pedal purchase. I can't help but feel that I'm invoking the wrath of the law of Sod; my amp is bound to pack in as soon as this has gone A top quality, made in Canada passive DI box [b]This has never been used, and is in mint condition![/b] As you can see below, it comes in the original box (was hard to get into, so a bit ripped on one end), the manual, booklet and a Radial Sticker! I'm based near J26 of the M1, otherwise, add £4.50 for postage and packing. My Feedback - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/169000-roland-rock/"]http://basschat.co.u...00-roland-rock/[/url] Here's the blurb from Radial:[list] [*]Compact passive direct box for stage and studio [*]Able to handle huge transients without distortion [*]Transformer isolation eliminates noisy ground loops [*]Plug and play easy to use feature set - on stage or in the studio [/list] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]The Radial ProDI is a passive direct box that combines exceptional audio performance with solid dependable construction, making it the ideal general duty direct box for stage and studio.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]The heart of the ProDI is a custom wound Radial transformer. It features an exceptionally high 140kΩ input impedance to reduce loading while enabling the ProDI to handle extreme signal levels at all frequencies without distortion. This is further improved upon with an internal mu-metal shield to protect against electromagnetic fields that can cause unshielded transformers to distort.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3This compact direct box begins with 14-gauge steel I-beam skeleton for added rigidity and Radial's unique book-end design that creates a protective zone around switches and connectors. Glass filled nylon connectors and high cycle switches combine with the mil-spec PCB and internal RF filtering to provide durability and noise-free performance. A full bottom no-slip pad provides both mechanical isolation and electrical insulation to further protect against the rigors of professional touring.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]The ProDI is ideally suited for instruments such as bass guitar, active acoustics, keyboards and just about anything else! When you consider all of the features and the affordable price tag, it is no wonder the Radial ProDI has become one of the most popular direct boxes ever made.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3][/size][/font][/color] Edited July 2, 2014 by Roland Rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skej21 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 How had this not flown out?! Great DI and I use mine at EVERY gig, rehearsal and recording session. The isolation cuts out all signal noise and it's built like a tank and £60 is a steal. Someone will get a bargain here. GLWTS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
