  Boss DI-1 Direct Box - "handy box" - ericthegreat

  

  I've been using a few of Boss DI 1s for the 2 year2 and have found them reliable and overall quite useful. I use it mostly on bass guitar, running this DI box to a hardware preamp. I have also used it with a variety of keyboards and pick ups for stringed instruments like violin and cello. It won't color your sound and is generally pretty sturdy....

  ProCo Sound DB-1 - "good price well built" - yoTrakkz

  

  Having the built in effects and provides a variety of options and features that are handy for bass players on the stage.  I wouldn't use this in a studio however as I don't think that the signal is clean enough to put on tape.  The price of the Pro Co Sound DB1 is reasonable, but again I would only recommend looking into it if you are a bass pla...

  CGM Prods. Clear Line Passive DI - "affordable " - yoTrakkz

  

  When it comes to DI boxes, Radial Engineering is one of if not the best in the business, and the CGM is one of their best and most affordable models. Suitable for both professional and home studio owners looking for a DI box, CGM Passive D1 is a great investment that will last a lifetime as it is built like a brick! Highly recommended for studio...

  Radial Engineering PRODI/PROD2 - "lots of options" - yoTrakkz

  

  I've been using the Radial PRODI for about two years and it is probably the best direct input box that I've used. It gives you a lot of options over your tone and I always find that I get great sounding results with it. The price isn't cheap, but it is really designed for professionals and for this reason I really wouldn't recommend it for home ...

  Behringer [ULTRA-DI Series] DI400P - "nice black box, very useful " - yoTrakkz

  

  I've been using a few of Ultra-DI DI400P’s for the last year and have found them reliable and overall quite useful. I use it mostly on bass guitar, running this DI box to a hardware preamp. I have also used it with a variety of keyboards and pick ups for stringed instruments like violin and cello. It won't color your sound and is generally pret...

  Seventh Circle Audio T15 - moosers

  

  While I do think that the Seventh Circle Audio T15 is a good place to start in building your preamps from Seventh Circle Audio since they are the cheapest, if you have experience building gear at all it’s still probably worth it to step it up and bit and start with a few of the more legit modules. The T15 sounds good for sure and the price is r...

  Seventh Circle Audio C84 - moosers

  

  If you are going to go for a Seventh Circle Audio preamp collection, the C84 needs to own at least one or two spots in your module. It’s amazing that you can have so many different colors in one casing and you won’t want to miss out on having this one in there. It’s about average in price compared to the other Seventh Circle Preamps which is s...

  Chandler Limited Germanium Preamp/DI - "solid amp" - ericthegreat

  

  Chandler Limited is truly a special set of preamps. Even if you don't know anything about Quad Eight, as most really don't, Chandler stands on it's own as a set of world class mic preamps for all applications. They're versatile and simply sound great. I'd only used this for the first time recently and it's definitely my new favorite set of pream...

  Brent Averill 1064 - moosers

  

  The Brent Averill 1064 is a great choice if you're looking for a top of the line single channel preamplifier and EQ. For me it will always be Neve when it comes to consoles and preamps - I just think they have the most depth of any preamps out there. Of course having different colors is necessary for different applications, but if your rhythm ...

  Avalon VT-737SP - "worth it" - yoTrakkz

  

  I like the sound of this preamp the best. I haven't had the chance to use the Lo-Z input yet, but I look forward to it. The phase reverse and phantom power work fine, and the pad is useful. There isn't much more to say, other than this is a great tube pre-amp with a few modern touches thrown in for good measure.
