Professional signal processing

The Klark Teknik DI 20P is a DI box that, thanks to its first-rate components, makes absolutely no compromises when it comes to processing audio signals, getting across every instrument's unique character to the mixing desk, where the sound can be further shaped and enhanced. Because the DI 20P is constructed entirely from passive components, it doesn't require an external power source; particularly noteworthy is its special transformer, made by the manufacturer Midas, which is responsible for the high-quality signal processing. The DI 20P is sure to impress professional users working both in the studio and at live events with its robust build quality and reliable functionality.

Simple signal paths

The front of the Klark Teknik DI 20P is equipped with a pair of input sockets for an unbalanced, high-impedance stereo signal. Both jacks have their own XLR output on the rear of the unit: If a mono signal needs to be run out of both XLR outputs, there is also a pair of thru sockets on the front panel – the user can simply use a short patch cable to connect the left thru socket with the right-hand input. Next to the sockets, there are pad switches that attenuate the signal passing through to the XLR sockets on the rear by 15dB. Situated between the two XLR sockets, there's also an earth/lift switch to separate the input and output grounds.

One for the road

The Klark Teknik DI 20P can connect stereo keyboards, samplers, synths, and other electronic instruments to a mixing desk, making it a trusty companion for event techs and studio engineers who want to able to record their musicians with negligible loss of signal level. Additionally, the pad switches make it possible to reliably process the input signals of a whole range of instruments. The hum caused by loops between devices and an electric current can be suppressed using the earth/lift switch. All the electronics housed in the DI 20P are well-protected thanks to the sturdy aluminium casing and the hard rubber corner protectors, which also give the device a very robust look. This is a professional DI box that's ready for the road.

About Klark Teknik

Founded in 1974 by brothers Terence and Phillip Clarke, Klark Teknik designs and manufactures professional audio equipment used primarily in the events industry. Based in Kidderminster, Worcestershire, UK, the company has developed a number of innovative products in the audio field (including the DN60 Real Time Analyzer and the DN300 Graphic Equalizer) and it won one of the Queen's Awards for Enterprise in 1986. Today, the firm (along with Midas) is owned by the Music Group, to which Behringer also belongs.

No need to compromise

It's the exceptional electronics inside this little device that allow the Klark Teknik DI 20P to process signals so immaculately. The first incredible spec is its THD value: 0.01% at 1kHz. The frequency response in turn goes from 20Hz to 30kHz, with a 1dB tolerance. All the inputs and outputs are designed to ensure the highest levels of signal integrity – for instance, the premium XLR jacks from renowned manufacturer Neutrik. The DI 20P's input impedance is 500 kiloohms; if a pad switch is activated, reducing the signal by 15dB, the impedance is reduced to 10 kiloohms. The signal-to-noise ratio is 108dBu, meaning the device's inherent noise is extremely low. Finally, the DI 20P's weight of just 540 grams means that it is also incredibly portable.

Dibox has a good sound, but there are design flaws!

Shapa-47 05.10.2019

Hi, I recently bought this dibox on a tomann, the sound is good, but the upper input jacks of the diboxes are not reliable, they are not soldered to the board, but simply glued to the lower through inputs with glue! Yesterday, at work, we accidentally stepped on jacks when they were plugged into the dibox, and the dibox jacks popped out of the bottom thru jacks, and the sound disappeared! I do not recommend using the upper entrances!

Great quality price ratio

I use these babies for live music, i use them for both keys and guitars signals. I mean, for this price you won't get any better.
Couple of minor flaws:
-the input jack socket looks a little fragile, problem solved by connecting the inputs in the thru socket since it's a parallel contact.
-L and R output on the front are switched from what you'd expect, so pay attenction.
They sound good tho, and they come at a small price. 4 starzzz

Great Affordable Stereo DI

Dec Q 19.06.2019

I bought this for stereo keyboards because the PA company that I work with all the time started using them and they only buy good equipment. For the price it's perfect for keyboards. Really simple layout. Not too big. Well built. 15db pads and ground lift are very useful.
Very happy with it. Would recommend to any gigging musician.
