Strymon PCH Active Direct Interface

The Strymon PCH is an advanced stereo active direct interface featuring a built-in console-quality headphone amplifier. Whether your signal chain includes guitar, bass, pedals, keyboards or synths, PCH ensures full clarity and consistency—no matter how complex your rig.

This DI is different because it handles high-output sources with ease. Running from a 9 V DC supply internally converted to 24 V, it offers exceptional headroom and a flat, low-distortion response—preserving the tone of your instrument and effects chain without colouring the sound.

Specifications:

• Stereo high-impedance ¼″ inputs for one or two sources (mono or stereo operation)
• Barely transparent, bullet-proof construction with extruded 3 mm aluminium chassis and 5 mm protective ribs
• Balanced XLR Left/Right outputs (Mic/Line switchable), unbalanced ¼″ Thru outputs (mono or stereo)
• Console-quality headphone amplifier onboard—plug in headphones and monitor your full rig in stereo
• Switchable ground lift and sum-to-mono functions for full live or studio flexibility
• Extremely flat frequency response (±0.25 dB, 10 Hz–80 kHz+) and very low noise floor (SNR +130 dB in line setting)
• Designed and built in the USA

Whether you’re sending your pedalboard or keyboard rig to a mixer, PA or recording interface; and whether you’re practicing via headphones or performing live, the Strymon PCH is engineered to deliver professional-level transparency and reliability.
