Hi guys,
a quick question:
I was measuring two passive DI boxes with a scope just for curiosity and noticed the more expensive one has got a much higher output on the hot than on the cold pin. Is it damaged? I checked everything twice. The scope and probe settings were right. The pad and GND lift switches didn't make a difference.
Info for the scope screenshots:
- Signal generator: 1kHz Sinus / 0,775 Vrms / 50 Ohm / connected to unbalanced input of DI box
- Yellow: XLR Output Pin 2
- Blue: XLR Output Pin 3
DI Box 1: Cheap noname "DXI-DI Sirus Pro"
DI Box 2: LA Audio DIX
