    About this Product

    The BSS AR-133 is a professional active DI box built for stage and studio use, converting unbalanced instrument, line or amplifier signals to a balanced XLR output. Long regarded as a reference-standard direct box, it is a mainstay for touring engineers, venues and hire companies who need clean, reliable signal conversion for guitars, keyboards, DJ consoles and other electronic sources.

    Active DI
    Type · Single channel
    0 / -20 / -40 dB
    Attenuation · Switchable pad
    48V or 9V PP3
    Power · Phantom or battery
    Balanced XLR
    Output · Ground-lift switch
    Fail-safe poweringThe AR-133 runs on 48V phantom power from the console. If phantom power fails or is accidentally switched off, the unit automatically switches over to the internal 9V PP3 battery for uninterrupted operation – a practical safeguard for live work.
