Radial Engineering ProAV2 Stereo Direct Box
As a sound guy, you can get away with a lot of stuff. You can wear shoes without socks, dress in all black, and convince people that you're making the sound better by twiddling knobs that do absolutely nothing. In fact, there are only a few things you can't do, and one of them is take yourself seriously if you don't own a Radial ProAV2. You see, the Radial ProAV2 is your ultimate audio Swiss Army knife. Normally, trying to hook up the unbalanced outputs of a laptop or the consumer-level RCA outputs of a DVD player to a professional sound system is a lot like trying to squeeze a square peg into a round hole... blindfolded... with your feet.
