Product Information
The Line Isolation Box passiv is a product from the River Series by Palmer. It is a passive device that is designed to isolate audio signals and eliminate ground loop hum. The product is available in the wupper variant.
Product Usage Instructions
To use the Line Isolation Box passiv, follow these steps:
- Connect your audio source to the input of the Line Isolation Box using either a balanced or unbalanced signal.
- Connect the output of the Line Isolation Box to your audio destination using either a balanced or unbalanced signal.
- Ensure that the signal level of your input and output signals are the same.
- The Line Isolation Box will eliminate ground loop hum and provide isolation for your audio signals.
Note: For wiring examples, refer to the “VERKABELUNGSBEISPIEL” section of the user manual. Additionally, technical specifications for the product can be found in the “TECHNISCHE DATEN ALLGEMEIN” section of the user manual.
Let your signals flow, naturally and powerfully like a river! The River Series embodies this claim down to the last detail: featuring high-precision circuits, designed by our award-winning engineers to ensure your sound reaches its destination – the hearts of your listeners.
That’s exactly what Palmer® stands for. We have been manufacturing audio tools for professional use on stage, in broadcasting and in the studio since 1980. Musicians and sound engineers around the world value our solutions developed in Germany for their unhindered signal flow and pure sound – as crystal clear and vibrant as water! So what was more logical than naming the River Series models after German rivers?
On the map of Germany you can see where the Peene flows: 138 kilometers
through Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. Thank you for purchasing the peene! We
hope you enjoy this piece of German engineering.
Be true to your sound!

INTRODUCTION
A line splitter is used when a signal source is to be split to several
outputs, for example to control several power amplifiers or active speakers in
different rooms. By using generously dimensioned isolating transformers, the
sound remains unaffected, but hum loops are safely excluded.

CONNECTIONS
-
INPUT
Line input with 6.3 mm jack socket suitable for both unbalanced and balanced cabling. Use a shielded audio cable to connect, for example, a keyboard to the Line Isolation Box. -
OUTPUT
Line output with 6.3 mm jack socket suitable for both unbalanced and balanced cabling. Use a shielded audio cable to connect the Line Isolation Box to an input of a mixer or audio interface.
CAUTION: Connecting signal cables can cause considerable noise. Pay attention to this, and make sure that input channels (mixer, audio interface, etc.) are muted when plugged in. Otherwise, noise levels can cause damage.
NOTE: Strong magnetic fields can cause humming. Therefore, do not position the Line Isolation Box near strong magnetic fields (e.g. mains transformer).
