Strymon just dropped two active DI boxes with absurdly clean specs and a tank-like build that should handle any rig thrown at them.

PCH X1 and X2 at a glance
[LIST]
[*]Strymon built both in chunky 3mm aluminium enclosures.
[*]PCH X1 handles single-channel, while X2 goes dual.
[*]Custom transformers deliver true galvanic isolation on both.
[*]Non-buffered thru outputs sit alongside main XLR outs.
[/LIST]
Audio quality is borderline obsessive
[LIST]
[*]Frequency response stays flat within ±0.25dB to 30kHz.
[*]Noise floor hits a ridiculously low -123dBu.
[*]THD measured at 0.0007% at 1kHz is wild.
[*]Pristine tone was the top design priority, per Strymon.
[/LIST]
Handy extras for flexible setups
[LIST]
[*]An 80/240Hz high-pass filter is built into each unit.
[*]Ground lift switches handle hum-related issues easily.
[*]X2 packs a summing switch for mono compatibility.
[*]Polarity control on the X2 affects its left XLR output.
[/LIST]
Pricing for both models
[LIST]
[*]PCH X1 runs $199 at launch.
[*]X2 costs $299 for the dual-channel version.
[/LIST]
