But what will be the real audible result to the output? Better frequency 
range?
Less noise? Better dynamic range? More clarity? Essentially, enhancing the 
tone that I don't
like to begin with. :)  Now if that little DI is adding a nice Fender 
Tweed 
or Boogie tube tone, with
some subtle breakup, a variable response to how hard I pick, etc. then now 
we're talking....more like fantasizing.
