'Radial J48 & JPC Direct Injection Boxes'

By Hugh Robjohns
    "I am mightily impresssed with the J48 and it's obvious performance advantage is such that the extra cost is easy to justify for anyone who simply must have the best... I'll certainly be reaching for the credit card now that I've finished writing this review!."

'Radial JDI Mk3 & Radial J48 DI Boxes'

By Scott Dorsey
    "One of the problems with a lot of active DI boxes is that if you lift the ground on the output, phantom power can no longer pass through, and therefore they have to use an internal battery... The Radial folks get around this by using a tiny switching supply... This is just plain ingenious, and also incredibly convenient." ".. Very clean with good solid low end... Especially on bass I found it quite clean, and with a vast amount of headroom."

'Radial J48 DI'

By Dave Martin                             

   "I experimented with a handful of DI's on various instruments here in the studio... in every comparison, the Radial J48 was usually the final choice, simply because it sounded more like I thought the instrument should sound like" ... "While less expensive DI's are easy to find, this one has proven it's worth to me - I intend to buy a couple of them for my studio."
