L.R. Baggs Para Acoustic DI Preamp + DI Guitar Effects Pedal

I must admit i am fairly dissapointed of this DI box ; i expected more acoustically and mechanically, of this product and i was surprised that the QC was not, up to the standard either( The green LED did not work at all) whether this has something to do with LR Baggs decision to move production from US to China , i dont know.?Anyway the sound is not good and sound flat, with lot of distortion and alike; its without dynamics, details and warmth , compared to other DI boxes i tried. It did not sound natural either. I think the price is too high also. But i will always praise their PU system as one of my faves; the Elements system for western git ; its super...but its another story.
