When using The Brick as an instrument DI for a re-amp situation later on, would you say it colours the signal too much to be usefull?

In contrast to a super-linear FET-base pre, that is.

I guess, if it sounds good it's allright, but I would like some views on this.

Watch that re-amping idea. Very few times, is that gonna sound worth a damn. IMO
Radial does make a re-amp DI box. It's called the X-Amp.

I have never used one, but someone on here may already own it.
Anyone?

I do own both a Brick and a Littlelabs Red Eye (re-amp), so I've got the tools. My question would be whether it would be much different recording a more transparent signal (with some ultra-transparent SS device) rather than a somewhat coloured one, like with the Brick.
