Driftwood Amplifiers Loadbox Reactive Guitar Bass Tube Amp Head DI

The Driftwood Reactive Loadbox gives not only a load to your tube amplifier when you do silent recording - it really gives you the sound AND feeling of playing through a real 412 cabinet at your Amp's sweet spot. All that dynamic and SAG is still there - but without shaking your house or home studio.

How does this work?

Inside our Reactive Loadbox are several high power resistors, high-end capacitors and audiophile coils to have nearly the same frequency response as a 412 cabinet. All cabinets have a resonance frequency where its resistance is much higher that its rated resistance printed at your cabinet. This resonance acts together with your output transformer and with the negative feedback loop inside your poweramp.

With the Driftwood Reactive Loadbox your Amplifier can react in the same way like it would react with a real cabinet - and this retains all that dynamic and feel. 

For any musician is that dynamic feel and interaction a base of their creative process and articulation.

Features
