[QUOTE="Bennett Prescott, post: 92872, member: 4"] Shane, Passive DIs achieve their impedance isolation by using a step down transformer, which will have about 12dB of pad in it by its very nature. Active DIs are basically a fixed gain phantom powered preamp at the end of a mic cable, which is why they're hotter at the console. Either will be equally susceptible to passing on the pop from musicians unplugging or plugging instruments. [/QUOTE]
