Countryman Type 10 Direct Box

Enhance your audio experience with the Countryman Type 10 Direct Box, a high-quality, durable, and reliable choice for professionals seeking superior sound quality. This innovative direct box is the perfect companion to the classic Type 85, boasting an advanced design that sets a new standard in audio performance.

Unlike other direct box designs that compromise sound quality, the Type 10 employs a unique approach. Its analog circuit self-tunes to deliver your sound with the lowest distortion, lowest noise, and highest accuracy of any direct box on the market. The result is a clean, precise sound that remains true to the original audio.

The Type 10 Direct Box excels in performance, achieving the highest signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), lowest phase deviation, and lowest distortion of any DI. It maintains exceptionally low Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) and Intermodulation Distortion (IMD) across the entire audio band, and for a wide range of input voltages, ensuring your sound is rendered with extremely high fidelity.

Designed with versatility in mind, the Type 10 Direct Box is built to withstand less-than-ideal conditions. Whether you're dealing with noisy electrical systems, mix boards positioned across a stadium, or low or no phantom power for your box, the Type 10 delivers consistently great sound. Its rock-solid isolation is designed to drive any board across hundreds of feet of cable, regardless of phantom power availability.

The Type 10 Direct Box is built to outlast the competition. Its rugged construction features a molded core wrapped in an extra-thick architectural aluminum housing, with fully recessed switches and connectors. The electronics are equally robust, shrugging off static spikes and surviving direct connections to 110V or 220V line voltage.

The Type 10 Direct Box keeps it simple, just like the legendary Type 85, with no unnecessary roll-off switches or EQ options. However, it does include new features to assist you on the road. Handle sizzling hot outputs from active keyboards using the -15 dB pad with virtually immeasurable distortion. Use the edge of a coin to access the battery. Check the battery voltage and monitor the quality of the phantom power with the flip of a switch.

In summary, the Countryman Type 10 Direct Box is a professional, high-quality, and reliable choice for those seeking to improve their audio signal quality. Its innovative design and superior performance make it a standout choice in the world of direct boxes.
