Good DI for sporadical use
I spent a lot of time searching for a DI that's not too expensive but delivers OK sound. This is the one.
When I first received them (I bought two simultaneously) there was a defect on one of them. Thomann didn't hesitate to replace it. Since then, no problems to speak off.
I use these DI's for keyboards and on my SPD-SX. Sometimes Bass, Acoustic guitar or even my self-build sub-kick.
I never had an issue with the sound quality for my (non-professional) use.
Pros:
- Cheap alternative to the BSS DI on which the design is based
- Handles many sound sources with a very acceptable quality.
Cons:
- The defective unit that I received puts a bit of hesitation on it related to consistency and reliability

Nice for recording and live
I bought this DI box for getting my bass signal (passive and active) as well to the live mixer and to our recording interface in our rehearsals. The sound is clear, there's no essential humming. The 48V phantom power is a really nice feature.
Since I installed the box inside my rackcase, I also found out that it's possible to use the output (5.5mm) without the power supply.
We tried that box for a mono keyboard, but the sound was not as good as with more expensive DI boxes.
This box is easy to mount in a case (for bass players who use effectboards...) by opening 4 screws and removing the rubber corners.

Cant beat for the price
Although not as solid built and with premium built electronics like some high end studio D.I's, this D.I is still my go to for Live applications.
I own about 5 of these and use them extensively for Live events as they are well built, have all the necessary features, and I wouldn't have to worry about people kicking, throwing, spilling drinks on, or breaking them, as they are so cheap, even though the quality is good.
Let me put it this way, Ive had 5 of them for 5 years, used extensively every single week and they still all work perfectly!!!
Great product for the price...
Although, if you are looking for the real high end stuff for studio applications in particular, Radial would be better suited for its defined sonic character.

Useful and sturdy.
This DI has been very handy for me over the last four years. They're sturdy and easy to use, stay in place well, and changing the battery is straightforward. They're not really stackable though, which is a real nuisance.

I originally bought two of these for live use, one for a guitar and another for a mandolin. I can safely say that they are well worth the money, at a third of the price of the BSS AR133, It is just as good for live a performance DI. This DI is well worth the money.
