What Stands Out
Product Details
- At dbx, when we do something, we do it right. So when we decided to create our new direct injection boxes, we didn't settle for the same old tired approach to direct box design. With our dbx name on the line, how could we? One look at our new dB10 Passive and dB12 Active direct boxes will tell you that these are clearly different. With their bullet-proof construction, and extraordinary audio performance to rival their looks, finally there's a direct box worthy of the dbx name. Utilizing custom dbx mu-metal-shielded audio transformers, high-quality Neutrik® connectors, and low-noise circuitry preserves the sonic integrity and true characteristics of the signal source. Both boxes include a pad switch that accomodates instrument, line and even speaker level signals. Take even more control of your sound by utilizing the polarity invert switch to set the phase relationship between the direct and mic'd sound. As a professional, you don't have time for interference, so we've included a ground lift switch to solve potential hum and buzz problems due to ground loops. And between the combined shielding of the cast metal chassis and the custom-wound transformer, you can be doubly assured of a clean signal free from interference. All of this sits atop a solid, stable footprint, that will keep the box from being dragged around the stage, and the unique contoured underside allows secure stacking of multiple units.

Platform Trust & Buyer Confidence
“Everything was efficient and fast. ”
“The prices—including shipping costs and customs duties—are clear from the very beginning, with no hidden fees. I highly recommend using their services. My experience with the "Ubuy" website was excellent. I purchased a PRS USA Swamp Ash Special guitar, and it arrived in just 11 days. The shipping service was fantastic, and the product arrived in perfect condition. What I particularly appreciated about the site is that the prices—including shipping costs and customs duties—are clear from the very beginning, with no hidden fees. I highly recommend using their services.”
“I can't fault this purchase. Had a scarce part i needed, cheaper than i could source it in the UK, ordered and was followed up with great communication and speedy delivery of a very well packaged part.”
“Fast delivery, good and secure packaging, everything was fine and with no problems.”
“I am very happy with my insoles purchase, they make my work boots very comfortable and soft to walk on and even mitigate the vibration from driving the truck all day. I would highly recommend this company for online purchases, reliability of product delivery and value for money.”
