When R&D Goes Too Far...

TELEFUNKEN Elektroakustik introduces four new direct boxes at AES, including mono and dual models of both active FET and passive designs.
The TELEFUNKEN TDA-1 (mono) and TDA-2 (dual) are newly designed active FET direct boxes that employ discrete Class-A FET circuitry coupled with a high quality transformer that provides the perfect balance between clean, high headroom performance and warm, saturated tone.
The TELEFUNKEN TDP-1 (mono) and TDP-2 (dual) are new passive direct box designs that combine premium quality components with a rugged construction to create a reliable DI with rich, warm tone.
In the heart of each new TELEFUNKEN direct box design are custom-wound output transformers by OEP/Carnhill, made in the UK. The circuit boards feature gold-plated traces for maximum conductivity and are hand-assembled exclusively with through-hole components providing a secure and reliable connection compared to common surface-mount technology.
The circuits are housed in an extremely durable extruded aluminum enclosure with recessed heavy-duty metal toggle switches to engage a -15 dB pad and ground lift. The rugged construction is virtually indestructible, able to easily withstand the wear and tear of gigging. The simple and elegant design approach delivers a new standard in reliability and performance for direct boxes.

THIS is how you make a commercial for a product! Now the real question is when can I expect a reamp box from you guys?

[@ThornWithin]

i guess, uhm...yeah...

[@Judasz696]

Whats the diffrence between tdp1 and tdp2? Can i use tdp2 just for mono bass? So tdp2 is more flexible or is it only for stereo synths and tdp1 for mono synths?

[@oblitafier]

You can use the TDP2 as two mono channels, no problem. All passive stereo DI’s should be usable that way, as even though it’s designed for stereo devices, you still don’t want any crosstalk between channels

[@Miggy75]

Will you throw in a pint glass with each box?

[@JesusSanchez-pz1ii]

Telefunken direct box stereo need demo

I believe a countryman box is about the same.....Nice however..
