Franklin Audio - DI-20 Stereo Passive Direct Box
$400.00
IN STOCK
Low profile, high headroom. Now in stereo.
No hum, no headache, no tone shift—just a bulletproof stereo DI that gets out of the way. We made the DI-20 to our dream specs: dual custom-wound transformers for full-band frequency response and perfect isolation, high input impedance that feels natural to play through, and a low-profile enclosure that fits anywhere without demanding attention. The result is a DI that takes stereo keyboards, synths, and effects straight into mic preamps with zero noise and zero colouration—simple, reliable, and built to outlast everything else on your desk.
Capture stereo audio from synths, pedals and drum machines
High headroom, ultra-low noise
Minimal design, built to blend in with your favourite gear
Desktop friendly
Plug in
Connect your instrument to the DI-20 inputs using standard instrument cables. The high input impedance input preserves your tone and playing feel.
Send It
Run balanced XLR cables from the DI-20 outputs to your mic preamp or interface. The custom transformers convert your signal cleanly with zero added noise or tone shift.
Get Playing
That's it. The DI-20 gets out of the way and lets your instrument sound like itself—just cleaner, quieter, and ready for any preamp or processing you throw at it.
Super Useful
We believe great gear should be easy to use—no technical barriers, no learning curve, just music-making. We've thought deeply about every aspect of the DI-20's design so that you can focus on creating, no matter your experience level.
User-friendly design
Simple controls and clear indicators means less time learning and more time creating.
Desktop-friendly
We've packed the design into a compact form designed specifically to sit on your desk, your side table or even the top of your keyboard.
100% analogue
We make our gear using analogue circuitry with zero digital components—built for reliability, longevity, and easy repair if you ever need it.
No power needed
The SS-6 has a fully passive design, so you don't have to worry about freeing up an outlet.
Built like a tank
...with heavy duty 1.5mm folded steel enclosure. Your studio deserves gear that won't let you down.
