Great natural sound
Anonymous 26.01.2016
Great sounding DI box, let's the sound of your guitar come through.
I've tried this out through a smaller portable PA mixer system and at a full gig set up (3k rig with stage monitors and engineer). Using my Martin D28 with AER Ak15 pickup through the portable system I was able to do a direct comparison with my friends AER compact 60 which is a stunning sounding acoustic amp. To my ears the Stagebug had a much more open and natural sound. More dynamic response, a sweeter treble and a nice thump to the bass when digging in. Using this system I used the phase reverse switch and 10db pad.
Through the house PA at my local rock venue I wasn't pleased with the sound coming through the monitors. I had the pad engaged but didn't need to use the other 2 features. However, upon hearing a recording taken on the night, I was extremely pleased with the overall tone. Again, a very natural sound which I feel up until now I have never managed to quite nail with the AER pickup.
The compact size of the unit is a real bonus and I just might buy another to live in my Takemine 12 strings case as well.

Radial uber alles

Before Radial i have Behringer dibox, and i thought they are good, they have little noise. Then, i bought from Thomann, this cheapest Radial. Much better sound of acoustic guitar, no noise at all.They are small, light and looks phenomenal. And guitar player almost stole it from me...

Fantastic Value For Money
Mockie 01.02.2015
I purchased this DI box to take advantage of the fact it has a ground switch as I like to split electric guitar signals on the way to the amp so I can re amp the original signal later. This box gets that job done perfectly as I have absolutely no more ground loop issues but as I started using it on more and more instruments I noticed it's sonic character is far superior to my interfaces direct instrument inputs.
For my passive semi acoustic guitar and my passive bass guitar this little box gives them new life as they sound brighter with more life. I will definitely be investing in the passive version in the near future.

Low price yet unbeatable quality
Jonathan Feng 13.07.2021
Very firm body and reliable I/O, I've used it under nearly any scenario and it just work like a champ.
overall it delivers a super low noise floor and very clear signal quality, there's nothing to complain about whatsoever.

Best active DI for the price
Anonymous 18.06.2016
Having had several behringer DI's fail over the last year, I spent a little bit more to get something nicer. It's extremely well built and gives a very clean signal. The design is nice and minimalist, but with all the features you'd need. The only slight complaint is that the pad is recesed and needs a pen or point to operate, while the phase button (which I'd never use due to having phase flip on the desk) has a dedicated button. The overall quality of this box though is excellent.

Sturdy and tiny DI box
AJvW 05.02.2019
Great tiny DI box with a good sound and good features. Perfect for in the gigbag with acoustic guitar. I gave four stars for features because the unit can only be phantom powered. No DC in or battery option.
