The unit incorporates the Jensen JE-DB-E direct box transformer
enabling it to achieve its outstanding sound.
1/4 inch jack signal is buffered through the tube circuit and has a
source impedance of <2 kohms.
Just some applications include:
Acoustic Guitar - With its extremely high impedance of over 20 M, the Stereo Tube Direct is the perfect unit for the reproduction of the warm, natural, uncoloured sound of the acoustic guitar in stereo - whether live or in the studio.
