Klark TeknikDN200 V2 Stereo Active Direct Box

Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
DN200 V2 is a stereo active direct box with transformer-isolated XLR outputs for routing instrument or line sources to a PA or recording interface. Its selectable-impedance inputs accommodate passive pickups at 1 Mohm and line-level XLR sources at 20 kohm. Two 1/4-inch link-through connections can retain an onstage feed, and front-panel controls can sum stereo to mono or send one input to both left and right outputs. The extruded aluminum chassis has silicone rubber corners, and 48V phantom power is its listed power source.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Guitar, bass, and keyboard rigs needing transformer-isolated feeds to a PA or recording interface.
- Stereo sources that need to be summed to mono at the direct box.
- Break-time playback from an MP3 player, phone, or tablet through the stereo minijack.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Rigs without available 48V phantom power, which is the unit’s listed power source.
