retrospec juice box valve DI

[geoffbassist]

Hi guys, im selling my retrospec juice box valve DI box, heres the stuff from the website:

ALL TUBE direct box
The Juice Box represents a major innovation and a radical departure from the way tubes have been traditionally utilized in audio equipment. retrospec's design uses no audio transformer, eliminating the problems associated with transformer based direct boxes.
The result? A remarkable unit with exceptional performance features:


Frequency Response 10hz to 100khz
Distortion 0.05%
Noise Better than 90db
Clipping +18dbm
Transient response > 1µSec (no ringing or overshoot)


The Juice Box's audio circuitry is class "A" from start to finish. That and the absence of a transformer explain the conspicuously low distortion spec. It also employs a low impedance high voltage power supply, and a D.C. filament circuit just to keep things nice and quiet.
Then retrospec took one significant step further and included enough gain and headroom to be able to drive a 10k input at professional line level. Now you can go from instrument to console channel line in or direct to tape machine in one sweet clean step! Don't take our word for it, ask the artists, engineers, producers and studio owners who have put it to the test!

i bought it from the US a couple of years ago, you can select the voltage 110 or 220, its currently got a uk plug on.
they dont make these things any more and you wont find a second hand one anywhere else!
viewing welcome in leeds
im asking £160 posted

cheers Geoff

I remember plugging into one of these when I played a gig up in Scotland, think it was the Lemon Tree ??

Had really positive comments on the bass tone

yeh it sounds great, if you are into recording or want a great PA sound then this is it. Dave holland and marcus miller both have them in their rig, so does UK's Geoff Gasgoine..........
