DI02S Black Oxide
80s
INSPIRATION

We've taken our inspiration from the sound of vintage hifi equipment from the 80s, at the height of the use of audio transformers, which gave a good, big, loud sound.

But as you would expect from an excellent hifi device, the DI02S also offers great transparency to respect the timbre of your instruments.

3 MAIN FEATURES You WILL LOVE
1
A very high input impedance offering a wide and dynamic sound, perfect for modern & vintage instruments.
2
A "Buffer" feature on the Link output to ensure a perfect impedance match with the following amplifier, and always the best sound.
3
An output PAD to input microphone preamps after the direct box and get the colour you want.
WONDERING WHAT'S INSIDE ?
A classic HiFi inspired circuit - ideal for feeding vintage gears with low input impedance.
The legendary Carnhill© VT24499 output transformer for total galvanic isolation while adding body and character.
An ultra-low-noise universal power supply, ready for your next world tour.
Ok, sounds cool,
but what about the
specs?

This unique DI02S is one of the results of tests carried out with our new method of printing front panels using direct UV printing - a process that gives us greater creative freedom while reducing our environmental impact (less toxic waste generated, Greenguard gold-certified inks...).

We printed this faceplate on a raw steel panel, treated by cold blackening process using hematite. It gives to this DI02S a truly distinctive finish, both raw and elegant.

All technical specs remain the same as the standard DI02S :

  • Class A push-pull power stage, inspired by vintage HI-FI output stages: a must for exceptional roundness and transients
  • Very high input impedance - over 4 MΩ - not loading the source, and independent of the PAD position
  • 0 or +13dB input gain
  • OUTPUT PAD (-12/-24/-36dB) allowing to input microphone preamplifiers after the DI02S
  • Max input level: +9dBU without PAD | +18dBU with PAD
  • Max output level: +22dBU without PAD | +19dBU with PAD
  • Output transformer: Carnhill VT24499
  • Integrated buffer circuit on the LINK output
  • Rear instrument input, linked to the front panel input (could be used as a second LINK OUT, but will not benefit from the BUFFER)
  • VU Meter to monitor how hard you hit the output transformers (including clipping indicator)
  • Earth lift on the XLR outputs to avoid ground loops (independent for each channel)
  • Frequency response (1kΩ load) : ±1.0dB from 5.4Hz to 25+kHz | ±0.2dB from 20Hz to 20kHz
  • SNR : >102dB (0.2% max THD)
  • Worldwide compatible power supply: 100-240V | 50-60Hz
  • Dimensions (1U rack) : 483x260x44mm | 19.0x10.2x1.7in
  • Weight : 4.3kg | 9.4lb

Designed and assembled in our workshop in Saint-Vérand (France). All parts are manufactured by our beloved partners in France & Europe.
