The Klark Teknik DN200 is a dual DI box. Building on the success of the company’s highly acclaimed DN Series product line, KLARK TEKNIK has added the new DN200 Multi-Mode Stereo DI box to its product portfolio. The DN200 Dual-Channel Active DI Box delivers the connectivity and exceptional audio performance customers have come to expect from KLARK TEKNIK plus some innovative new features. Housed in a robust alloy case with the same form factor as the hugely successful DN100 single-channel DI, and further protected by a replaceable silicon sleeve, the DN200 features inputs on pairs of XLR, TRS and RCA sockets, plus a switchable 20 dB pad and ground lift switch. In addition to the usual applications of a stereo DI, the DN200 can operate in Sum mode, where left and right input signals are merged and routed to both left and right outputs, or Split mode, routing the left input signal to both the left and right outputs. The DN200 supports 24 V to 48 V phantom-power operation.
The main features of the Klark Teknik DN200 include:
High headroom design with +48 V phantom power for extended dynamic range
Sum and split options for flexible signal routing
Fully transformer-isolated design ensures electrical separation between PA and stage equipment
Balanced line inputs on Neutrik Combo* XLR and high impedance 1/4" TRS connectors
RCA Phono inputs for connection of consumer audio equipment
Independent phantom powering for each channel for maximum reliability
Global 20 dB input pad and earth lift switches
Aluminium extrusion casing with protective silicone rubber sleeve
I have got this as a DI to stick in my peli case to get me out of jail. Sound quality is at the same level as the other professional active boxes like BSS, but the input options and active split/combine options make it more useful. If someone turns up with a DJ controller with RCA outs or an Active bass or a keyboard I can cope with it all. I like the way the KT DIs are built and the switchgear is excellent. Highly recommended.
