- High-impedance LEHLE TRANSFORMER HZ
- Suitable for balanced or unbalanced signals
- Passive – no need for a power supply
The LEHLE P-ISO combines passive isolation with the highest possible signal fidelity. Its applications range from isolation and eliminating hum, to balancing and reamplification along with any signal routing that requires a clean signal free from noise. At its core is the high-end LEHLE TRANSFORMER HZ, which galvanically isolates the signal, eliminating any possibility of ground loops. The LEHLE TRANSFORMER HZ was specially designed for use with high-impedance signals but also processes low-impedance signals with uncompromising sound quality. The classic application for the LEHLE P-ISO is as a hum suppressor. Frequently background noise caused by ground loops occurs when two electronic devices are connected to each other. The LEHLE P-ISO provides a simple, but extremely effective remedy when installed between the two units. Using the ISO output, the devices are galvanically isolated and background noise becomes a thing of the past. By using two amplifiers, driven by one stereo effects device, the LEHLE P-ISO can successfully isolate one amplifier from the other. Thanks to its ability to pick off an unbalanced or balanced signal on the ISO output, the Lehle P-ISO is also eminently suitable as a reamplification device or as a high-quality compact DI box for all signal types. And just in case you are looking for a power connection: the LEHLE P-ISO performs all its functions without any need for a power supply. And due to its optimised size and low weight, it fits easily below your pedalboard or in any pocket.

The protective earth conductor and the ground connection of the audio signal create a loop which will pick up external interference generated, for example, by coils. Such interference will impair the signal. The LEHLE TRANSFORMER HZ transformer included in the LEHLE P-ISO galvanically isolates the ground connection. The hum loop is thus broken at this point.
