The J-ISO Stereo Converter with Jensen Transformers from Radial Engineering is a stereo line isolator, designed to convert a professional +4 dB line-level balanced signal to an unbalanced -10 dB consumer-level device. This enables you to take the balanced output of a mixer and feed a consumer-level recorder or audio input on a computer.
The J-ISO employs a premium Jensen transformer for optimal signal transfer to minimize distortion and artifact. Full bandwidth performance makes this unit suitable for music production.
The passive design begins with 100% discrete components throughout. Aset & forget level control lets you attenuate the input signal to prevent it from overloading the destination device. Output connections include a stereo pair of 1/4 connectors, a set of RCAs, and a mini 3.5mm (1/8 ) for interfacing to a mini recorder or laptop computer. Transformer isolation helps eliminate hum and buzz caused by ground loops while eliminating stray DC currents from flowing.
Utilizing Radial s unique bookend construction, this unit has 14-gauge steel construction throughout. This creates a protective zone around the connectors and controls for added durability. The steel construction also assists by shielding the transformers from outside magnetic fields. The J-ISO features an innovative I-beam skeletal insert that makes it virtually impossible to torque the PC board. This reduces potential stress which could cause premature solder joint failure. The J-ISO is designed for full-range applications as it has impressive signal handling capabilities and durability.
