Radial EngineeringStageBug SB-48 Phantom Power Supply
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Keep condenser microphones and active direct boxes supplied from one compact phantom-power unit. Radial's StageBug SB-48 uses a non-radiating charge-pump circuit to generate a stable, ripple-free 48V supply, with 48V or 12V operating options. Its stereo layout provides XLR input and output connections, and the included 15VDC 400mA supply can be secured with the retention clamp. Solid-steel construction and powder coating round out the Canadian-made enclosure.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Supplying phantom power to condenser microphones in a stereo XLR signal path.
- Powering active direct boxes where 48V or 12V operation is needed.
- Keeping the power connector secured with the built-in retention clamp.
