Musicians and FOH engineers have long recognized a need for reducing sound pressure levels onstage. And after the drums, the next issue is guitar amps, which players like to drive hard to achieve maximum tone. Now Radial has taken their acclaimed JDX direct box and combined it with the Phazer phase adjustment tool to produce the Headload, a new type of load box. The 100% discrete fan-cooled design begins with a series of high-power resistors to dissipate the power generated by the amp. High and low resonance switches restore the sparkle or bottom end depending on your preferences.
Radial Headload Guitar DI Features:
- Radial JDX direct box plus phase adjustment tool
- 8-ohm speaker cabinet outputs
- 6-position voicing switch lets you choose your desired amp and cabinet emulation
- Power going to speakers may be turned off for quiet recording or to eliminate a cabinet on stage
- Front-panel 1⁄4″ headphone jack with level control for quiet practicing
