Rated 5/5

Pro Co DB1

The new Pro Co DB1 1-channel Passive Instrument Direct Box is a little bigger than it's predecessor but still delivers nice clean sound from my acoustic guitar to the PA, well built and I expect it will last a long time.
Rated 5/5

Can't beat these.

A little pricy, but very rugged and very good signal to noise ratio. Very reliable and versitle.

Rated 4/5

di boxes

I got 3 of these a couple of weeks ago for my church they have worked great and the sound quality is good. Only problem I see is make sure you mute a channel before flipping any switches or you may blow a speaker overall I would buy more if I need them.
