Hear Everything. Play Confidently.
Unlock pristine, transparent tone—whether you're performing live, tracking in the studio, or practicing quietly.
The Strymon PCH delivers a stereo, active direct interface with a hidden superpower: a console-quality headphone amplifier that ensures what you’re monitoring is exactly what your audience hears.
Transparent by Design
No matter the instrument or genre, the PCH is the ultimate solution for connecting unbalanced outputs to pro systems while preserving your tone. Designed from the ground up to be sonically transparent, virtually unclippable, and bulletproof, it excels with pedalboards, keyboards, or synths.
And with its onboard headphone amp, it’s the only DI in its class that lets you monitor locally in real time.
Your Ultimate Amp-less Rig Companion
With its powerful headphone amplifier, the PCH makes it easy to monitor or practice your entire rig in full stereo, no matter the pedal order or components. Unlike ordinary DI boxes, which can easily clip when faced with pedalboard-level signals, the PCH provides ample headroom to keep your tone pristine. Whether you’re running into a PA, recording interface, or FRFR system, you can trust it to deliver your sound with complete accuracy.
Brilliant Design. Built to Last.
Engineered to handle the hottest pedalboard outputs with ease, the PCH runs on a 9V DC supply that’s internally boosted to 24V. The result is massive headroom and virtually unclippable signal fidelity.
Its rugged 3 mm extruded aluminum chassis with protective ribs is built like a tank and ready for the road.
