Rupert Neve RNDI-S

High-end two-channel transformer-based DI box from the hand of the legendary Rupert Neve. Rupert Neve Design’s RNDI-S signature sound is the product of new custom Rupert Neve-designed transformers and class-A discrete FET amps. The careful optimization of these two elements is the key to RNDI-S. The RNDI-S delivers a powerful and vibrant direct sound, with fantastic harmonic depth with massive tone and plenty of headroom for all instruments and stereo sources.
