Jensen Transformers PB-2XX

ISO-MAX Balanced XLR Stereo Audio Input / Output Isolator

The Jensen Transformers PB-2XX Stereo Audio Input / Output Isolator provides powerful 100 dB ground isolation, while the Faraday shielded windings ensure maximum RF interference rejection from sources like radio and television stations.

Jensen Transformers' ISO-MAX Audiophile-Quality balanced XLR stereo audio isolators provide the ultimate signal interface solutions.  They solve the fundamental problems associated with ground loops, without degrading signal quality. 

Ground Loops?

(or why the best planned systems sometimes sound bad)

It is a subject that is seldom discussed in manufacturers publications, or even in magazines of the trade, but ground loops can happen even in the most carefully planned audio system.

When devices in the same system are powered by separate power sources, that can cause a difference in ground potential between the two pieces of equipment. It can be because one of the circuits is loaded more heavily than the other, or because one run is longer than the other, or any number of other reasons that are beyond the scope of this article, but the result of this difference in ground potential is commonly referred to as a ground loop.

The Solution

The Jensen Transformers PB-2XX is elegant in its simplicity. Simply insert the PB-2XX anywhere in the signal path  and immediately, the effects of the ground loop become a non-issue. Problem solved. There are not too many things that one can install in an audio system that can provide so much improvement with so little effort.

Jensen Transformers' Description

Stereo Audio Input/Output Isolator

The Model PB-2XX is designed to provide over 100dB of common mode isolation
at 60Hz and to help eliminate R.F. interference from radio and television stations.
Transformer isolation allows maximum interconnection flexibility, since both sources
and loads may be either balanced or unbalanced. Low impedance windings make this
unit suitable for patch bays and as a general purpose "fix-it" box and allow it to be
placed near either the output driving source or the destination input.

Features:

  • Ruler flat frequency response preserves "Audiophile Quality" signals
  • High-Grade Nickel-Iron-Molybdenum alloy cores for extremely low distortion
  • Faraday shielded windings for maximum R.F. interference rejection
  • High quality gold plated connectors for long term reliability Available with a choice of XLR, RCA, 1/4" Phone Jack or BNC connectors
  • Unpluggable screw terminal strip for easy "Home" to "Road" changeovers
  • Convenient 7.0" W x 3.5" D x 1.6" H. dimensions allow rack tray or rail mounting
  • Gold Contact DIP Switches allow for flexibility in grounding configuration
