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).

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.

Sturdy and reliable DI
TheRobster 11.03.2025
If you're looking for a reliable DI who does the job consistently every time, this is the one you'll need.
Not the best DI ever sound-wise, but it will definitely do the job for most gigs - amateur and professional.

Decent DI box for the price!
AndyNNL 08.06.2017
Great little di box that I didn't know I badly needed. After comparisons from my hi-z input on my interface to using this has made the biggest difference in my di tones!

Love the thru output too so I send to an amp as well as direct to the daw. Not used it live but I can imagine it holding up and sounding great as it's sturdy as heck
