Customer reviews about Radial Engineering Pro 48

l

Good for the price, KT DN100 or BSS AR133 are good alternatives.

Robust build quality, this is where your money goes. Same Steel book shell design as the rest of the Radial pro/j line. This is slightly let down by the steel bolts, which will rust over time given exposure to humidity/salt - these can be replaced with A2 stainless, no biggie.

Sound is great, linear and low THD with plenty of headroom. It excels on sources which need faithful reproduction, this isn't a character DI and it doesn't impart the same sonic signature as the Jensen transformer in the J48 etc.

Great choice for live work, where reliability & transparency is paramount. For studio work where colour is desired, maybe look at alternatives such as the BAE PDI (Carnhill transformer).

Excellent

D-Rop20 19.05.2019

This DI-box works great for a studio set up.

I am running it through a focusrite interface and it has vastly improved the quality of my guitar Di's. When used in conjunction with amp simulation software the sound is greatly improved.
I have also used it to record my amp while also capturing DI signals and it worked exactly as expected.
I have not used this live but with it's sturdy build quality, it should withstand the abuse that live performance brings without recieving any major damaged but don't quote me on that.

It works great for Electric Guitar, Bass and Acoustic guitars (I haven't tried anything else through it as of yet).

I'm using it for recording guitars with a Scarlett 2i4.

Pros:
Excellent build quality, simple to use. It's great for taming too hot guitars to prevent sound card clipping without any loss in tone.

Cons:
None

Would recommend this to anyone who's having issues with a too hot guitar signal.

Lotta bang for the buck

Jellestokhof 08.05.2019

Classic spare DI, because it always works. Always. I have been using mine forever and it just doesn't brake down. I'm pretty sure I can throw mine out the window, walk down, pick it up and it would still work. Using it for bass and it gives a very well balanced sound that works great for tv or live shows. Studio, not so much though. Could use a little more fatness but hey, this thing is definitely worth the money!

Great little DI box

N0MN0M 13.05.2018

I purchased this for a uni project in which I tested this against a cheap £10 DI Box. Funnily enough the frequency response of the cheaper DI had a completely flat response and this coloured the sound within the high mid - treble frequencies.

HOWEVER, If you have a decent budget to spend on a DI box i'd definately recommend this. Superb quality, I cannot fault it!

Built as a tank

vintagemgear 01.04.2018

Sounds amazing, is built like a tank, and works always right out of the box. What else can be said?

I use this one as a buffer between my amp line out and the interface. It greatly helps to retain my highs.

Radial EngineeringPro 48 - best for the price

Florjan 23.10.2019

It does what it has to do, for a very good price. Comes with a sturdy shelling, so you should not be able to break it. I recomend for live and recording.

Worthwhile investment

TonyOr 30.07.2022

I bought this to try to clean up the recording of bass guitar in my home studio. It works very well and gives a cleaner sound than plugging directly into my Focusrite 18i8. Definitely worth the money for me as the bass is such an important part of the mix.
