Heavy-duty passive DI
Anonymous 17.09.2015
Very well built passive DI, sounds very good, transparent to me, or at least it's musical if there is any slight coloration. It's built like a tank, you can probably step on it (no guarantees though, I didn't try!). It feels like some Radial boxes I have in build quality, also good for stage work especially that the buttons are a bit protected by the frame that extends longer than the buttons reach in their out position. It's has some weight to it physically, so if you need 10 DIs for live and lug them around yourself, look for something a little lighter - I use this in the studio to a stage box and that works fine; the weight is a positive there so it stays in place nicely.

Sounds great
Anonymous 30.07.2016
This DI sounds great. It isn't as transparent as a Radial J48, but it really sounds great. I often use it on Novation Bass Station 2 and it sounds better through this DI than it does through the J48 or directly to a line input of a console.
Even if it were a single channel DI, it would be still great for the price.
The connectors are also reliable.
The only downside is that the chassis isn't very well protected and the paint can start chipping off if you throw it around too much. It isn't bad, though. If you take care, it can certainly last for ages. Mine still looks like new.

DI ?
Peter PG 01.05.2019
I have Neve and BSS DIs: I can not hear any difference in the sound! If you increase dramatically the signal level you start appreciating a difference in the saturation, but in the normal usage this DI is incredibly good. I did not expected such a hi standard, considering that is a Thomann brand. My intention was to have an extra stereo unit just in case, but I was surprised. Well done.

I was using a "brand omitted" inexpensive two channel DI with contact mics for an Experimental Music Project recently. During the rehearsals in my project studio I noticed that the two mics that were routed through "brand omitted" were very noisy at the high mic preamp settings required for this Performance.

I did a bit of research and found, to my great surprise, that these branded DI were famously noisy! I searched briefly at Thomann_de for a solution that was offered a high quality in construction, audio, and very practical real world features at a reasonable price. Enter Palmer PAN04.

The concert was a success and the Palmer PAN04 was very quiet even at extreme mic preamp settings. Thank you Palmer and Thomann_de
