Whirlwind ISO2 Overview

The ISO-2 Dual Line-Level Isolator and Balancer from Whirlwind is a small, rugged 2-channel isolation box and line balancer, for use with audio production in TV, film, and many other applications.

As an isolation unit, it can be used for isolating press and video feeds or on-stage power amps; in broadcast or sound reinforcement applications, it's ideal for eliminating hum and buzz via the ground-lift switch, and dedicated channel 2 polarity reverse switch. The ISO-2 also converts unbalanced lines to balanced lines, facilitating long, noise-free cable runs.

Proprietary TRSP-600 transformers for flat frequency response and low distortion
Ground-lift buttons for each channel, Polarity-reverse button for Channel 2

This isolator sounds great. You cannot overload this thing. You feed it a higher and higher signal and there is not distortion! It is very rugged, no moving parts inside (so no rattle) and can easily handle a drop from 5 ft. The only downsides are the moderate weight (it's made out of metal) and the lack of a phase reverse switch for channel 1.

question

I connected this unit in between the mixer and the power amp but it DIDN'T eliminate the buzz in the speakers at all. Did I wire it in correctly?
Asked by: Mark G.
Place the ISO-2 between the amp output and the speaker input.
