RDL AV-HK1 Overview

Radio Design Labs has come up with the AV-HK1 Hum Killer Transformer to give you ground isolation in an unbalanced line with high impedance audio inputs. Both input and output connections are provided on gold-plated phono jacks. Each input jack shield is electrically isolated from the case and from the output ground. The shield connection of the output jacks are connected to the case shield.

This rugged transformer is designed to be taken on the road and will withstand travel conditions but it also works well as an installed unit, simply attach the included mounting bracket and you're in business.

If you find that you use a lot of stereo mini-jacks while working, never fear, the AV-HK1 comes with adapters so an instant and convenient interface is right at hand.

Included Adapters
If you use stereo mini-jacks then the included adapters will make connecting a snap and keep you smoothly sailing.
Portable and Fixed Applications
The AV-HK1 is extremely rugged and built to be portable, but the included mounting bracket also makes this a perfect transformer for fixed installations.

RDL AV-HK1 Reviews

Works exactly as you'd expect

This does exactly as you'd expect, in an affordable, small package. I could not bring myself to spend the $$ for Jensen, which costs more than twice as much. With these installed I noticed no reduction in volume or sound quality, and the hum is gone!

Great Product, Kills Hum while preserving audio quality.

This product is easy to set up and eliminates audio by simply connecting it passively inline between audio with an annoying hum and the device to receive the clean audio. The only got-ya is that the Right and Left inputs are relative to their side of the box and the right and left outputs are relative to their side of the box. This sounds simple but when look down at the box from a top view with wires connected, the right input is diagonal to right output and left input, therefore, is diagonal to the left output. Opposite of how my mind works, I instinctively hook the same color wire on both sides of the box which reverses the left and right channel. In a mono setup, you can end up with no sound output at all as I did until I realized my mistake.
