Tone and Durability From Radial

The Radial JDI Stereo is the professional passive direct box you can rely on whether you're touring stages or laying down tracks for your next EP. Using the same signal path that secured the original JDI's place on concert equipment riders the world-over, the JDI Stereo gives you two channels of input, two channels, of output, and sound-shaping-at-the-source control. At Sweetwater we see it as a great choice for keyboard, guitar, and bass players who need the I/O for stereo amp rigs or using multiple instruments. Rugged steel construction on the outside and Radial's award-winning engineering on the inside means your JDI Stereo will be there for you for many gigs to come.

What is Certified Open Box Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call "Certified Open Box" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

Certified Open Box (also known as a demo) means we’ve had it out of the box for our YouTube channel, displayed at events, tested in our studio, or maybe it was in a customer’s hands for a few days and isn’t ‘factory fresh’ as a result. Every Certified Open Box item we sell has Sweetwater’s 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty and has been tested and verified up to ‘new’ specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it’s in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Certified Open Box item at Sweetwater, you get:

2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!

My new Radial Stereo JDI was purchased to mate up with a new Strymon Iridium. I used the JDI this week while playing guitar in worship at a CityQuake conference in Billings, MT. The JDI performed flawlessly and the output had beautiful, massive tone. Build is solid and function is dependable for the long haul.

I love the Radial JDI Stereo. We bought a new keyboard and I just couldn't use a cheap DI on it. We had an entry level keyboard and upgraded to a much nicer Yamaha keyboard, so we upgraded the DI as well. I couldn't be happier with the DI. I have a mono JDI and now the stereo. Honestly, I don't have to run the signal as hot on our console to get a great result. These DIs are just amazing! I also have a couple of the ProDIs and that Jensen transformer in the JDIs is just magical. It makes a world of difference in the sound quality.

I recently upgraded to a Nord Electro from a Roland Juno and wanted to make sure my DI box captured as pure of a signal as possible with the upgrade, so I opted for the Jensen version of the Radial Stereo since it was recommended to me. All I can say is this DI box makes it sound like there's nothing in the chain at all. The sound i get through my IEM's is the same sound I get direct from the headphone jack, this DI box is the real deal!

The price may be an issue for some, but it's totally worth the investment. Clean, clear, professional sound.

Most instruments we use are "active" using a 9volt on board battery to power the preamp. To the huitars or the Bass... some ʻukulele.....
The JDI stereo allows my guitar and our Bass player to use just one DI box with two seperate sends to the P.A. System and still allows "Kona " to plug out the "Thru" to the Battery powered Battery JBL ( also from Josh Kattner, my man, advisor and go to guy!) as his on stage monitor! Great way to go! The was a ground buzz when the PA phantom was switched on... and plugging in or disconnecting any inout poped! So the JDI SOLVED THE PROBLEM! Mahalo Josh Kattner!

After using cheap DIs and having lots of digital interference (clicks and morse code like noise), we switched to Radial Engineering DIs. All that noise disappeared. The quality of the transformer does matter and Radial uses high quality parts. We purchased this stereo DI for a keyboard and it's great having a stereo pair of inputs instead of having to use two mono DIs. These aren't cheap, but they are extremely high quality and will last. It's will worth the money.
