[QUOTE="Lee Brenkman, post: 17161, member: 154"] Re: DI boxes Another +1 for Al Keltz One of the clubs I work for had a bunch of IMP direct boxes and the ground lift switches in them just went limp with a broken internal spring or latch. Once he learned of it a bag of new replacement switches appeared in the mail a few days later. Countryman service, when I've needed it which hasn't been often in the last three plus decades, also been top notch. Type 85 boxes aren't indestructible but you really DO have to abuse them to make them not work. The crack inside John's is the first time I've ever seen THAT. One note though, it's a lot easier on the more recent ones to re solder the connections between the 1/4 inch and XLR jacks than it was on the older ones. There's only a small fraction more clearance between the back of the jacks and the plastic battery/electronics block but it makes a BIG difference for those of us with fat fingers. [/QUOTE]
