Thanks aclarson and others for the great info, like usual.

Am I putting too many eggs in one basket by having 2 Passive DI's as opposed to buying an Active DI (which I dont own yet)

What are Active DI's necessary for?

For passives, I'm leaning towards the Radial D1 for $99
-Should I get the stereo version for an extra $50? (Radial Pro D2).

The input impedance changes from 140kOhms (D1) to 100kOhms (D2) is this an issue for electric guitar?

Thanks again for all the help
