Review: Great DI and Overdrive stomp for the money! - Awesome DI/pedal! I have played through many amps, DI's including SansAmp, etc. in the last 20 plus years, and this product stands out among them all. I personally like it better than the SansAmp, simply because it sounds much better. The circuitry really does a good job bringing out that SVT sound, and using the Ultra Lo/Hi helps give me that edge to cut through the mix in live play. The overdrive "scrambler" is also very good and gives me the grit I need in certain songs. Overall, it is a great price for what it gives you back. Also, the construction is far superior to anything else I have used--very solid and all metal--even the bottom. Only con I could give it would be the lack of phantom power. However, I was able to just use a 12v adapter I had laying around instead of using a battery, and it works like a charm.
Review: I love this thing - I love this thing. its totally worth the money, sounds great. I use it as my amp going into my subwoofer for the TV and dare I say it, it can actually get too bass'y or huge tonal range options. It had a strange loud zinging sound afternoise in the key of A but I figured out it was so bass'y that it was loudly vibrating the A string on my acoustic behind me. Cool:). Haven't tried a direct in recording yet but the sound of this is far superior to bass amps I've had. No mics needed and the various vibrating things earthquaking around the house won't make it onto the recordings. . Definitely a 5 star item in my opinion. I would at least check outside of desertcart for pricing though.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Big Warm Classic Ampeg Punch In A Small Box
*by B***Z on March 15, 2016*

I've been strictly an Ampeg user, for yrs. I like other brands too, but always come back to Ampeg. I actually own 2 Ampeg bass amps (1 head and one combo). I had been holding off on the SCR-DI for quite some time now, but finally bit the bullet. I mainly bought it so it could be my practice amp. I can't make noise in my apartment. So it comes in handy. And the "Aux In" is great for jamming along with your favorite tunes. But all in all it can come in handy for live/studio work, as well. It has the great classic "warm punch" Ampeg is known for. So I'm definitely a happy camper ☺ Btw...This thing is built like a tank. Feels and weighs like a brick...Literally!
