"Too darn Noisey!!!"

Sound:

as other users have found the noise floor is too high!! Sounds pretty good though if you ignore the noise, freq response doesn't seem bad.

Feature:

nice features, like all the input/output/link options, can't complain about the features for the price!

Quality:

Reasonably build another user said it should have rubber feet which I'd agree with but apart from that it seems ok

Manufacturer Support:

used behringer support for a different behringer product guess what there isn't even a UK number for me to ring, I filled in an online form to which I got no response. Poor show.

Value:

At first it seems like a bargain 2 DIs for that price can't be bad, but really the noise is such a problem that it takes away the value!

The Wow Factor:

practical addition really, but I do like DIs that have an LED :) silly I know but these active DIs without LEDs just don't cut it lol

Overall:

Normally I think behringer make top value products with very decent performance, not this one! If behringer made this product to have a real noise level of <100dB I'd be all over it, I'd buy 50! As it is I won't buy another, I'm really starting to see the appeal of paying

"Noisy noisy noisy"

Sound:

Noise is a big problem. Even without plugging in my guitar, the DI20 generates hissing. The frequency response is dodgy. I suspect the mid to high frequency got attenuated somewhere, sounding like amplifying through a curtain.

Feature:

Great features. 2 channels, and very flexible. Can act as splitter to monitor when one channel is used. But with the noise, the features are pure cosmetics.

Quality:

My first DI20 I purchased gives a strange hum. They exchanged it, and the second one has a hissing when fader turns up to 10 and gain knob at 11 o'clock. The shop tested the others and they all behave like the second one. The S/N ratio is definitely not as published to be 100dBu. Behringer can get sued if someone got the time to provide test report to prove that.

Manufacturer Support:

Behringer never responded after a few emails from my local reseller.

Value:

It's a useless thing if you use it in recording studio. For giging... see if you can tolerate the noise.

The Wow Factor:

No. pay 10 bucks more for the DI100. That's a much better product.

Overall:

Changed it after 2 hours when I have done isolating the noise source.

"NONSENSE!!!"

This reviewer purchased this item from Same Day Music.

Sound:

i give it a 2 because it got rid of the hum I was having but replaced it with TONS OF WHITE NOISE!!!!

Quality:

I'm sure you can guess why.

Manufacturer Support:

never spoke with them.

Value:

this shouldn't even be free.

"Handy white noise source!"

Sound:

I'll admit that I haven't tested the frequency response, but I've checked it for noise level. The DI20 generates enough white noise to negate the advantage of changing to an unbalanced line.

Feature:

The feature list is great, but it's really useless with the noise that is generated. Two channels in such a small package and low price seemed too goo dto be true and it was.

Quality:

It looks nice, but the noise!!

Manufacturer Support:

Have not sought support.

Value:

It's cheap and relatively rugged, but like I said too noisy.

The Wow Factor:

I must admit it was an impulse buy. The casing is attractive

Overall:

I am returning it ASAP and seeking another solution. Perhaps a passive DI that I know is just a transformer.
