Radial JDI Duplex Jensen-Equipped 2-Channel Passive Direct Box - Versatile Signal Integrity
The Radial JDI Duplex is a high-performance dual-channel passive direct box designed for professional touring, broadcast, and AV integration, delivering pristine, distortion-free audio from stereo instruments, consumer electronics, and line-level sources. Featuring two premium Jensen JT-DB-E transformers, it handles extreme signals with ruler-flat response (10 Hz–40 kHz) and virtually zero phase or harmonic distortion, providing a smooth Bessel curve for natural tone. With multiple input options (1/4", RCA, 3.5mm TRS, XLR), -15 dB pad, merge function, and ground lift, the JDI Duplex simplifies connectivity while eliminating noise, ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments.
Premium Jensen Transformers
Each channel's USA-made Jensen transformer offers exceptional linearity, high dynamic range, and minimal phase deviation, smoothing peaks without artifact. The passive design requires no power, preventing ground loops and hum, while the heavy-duty steel shell and I-beam construction withstand touring rigors, making it a staple for audio professionals seeking transparency and warmth.
