Default K&K Pure Mini Not Loud Enough?

I wanted to add that many Direct Input (DI) boxes have volume and tone knobs and if you're playing in a large venue (through a long snake) you probably will need one anyway. If your K&K is not loud enough the problem is most likely NOT the pickup but somewhere in the PA system (or maybe your sound tech?)

Not a solution but a personal observation: I'd rather not play a venue in which my K & K equipped instruments aren't loud enough without feedback. That said, I've easily found settings on the PA that minimize this problem.

ANY acoustic guitar equipped with a pickup and played at loud stage volume can be subject to feedback issues. A soundhole plug like the D'Addario Screeching Halt can work wonders in that situation.
