Price: $34,95

This is a stereo line level audio isolator with RCA connectors.
It is designed to stop ground loop related humming when connecting for example PC to different audio equipment or ínter-connecting different audio equipment.
This product seem to do what is promises quite well. It stops humming when installed and does not cause noticeable sound quality problems. The unit is easy to install. The package contains good instructions how to use this device (the same instructions are available on product home page and in PDF format at
http://www.xitel.com/customerdata_pdfs/GLI.pdf ).
This device seems to be a good product that does what is promised.
The mechanical construction seems to be better than some of the cheaper similar devices I have used earlier. This Xitel device performs at leas as well as those devices I used earlier and feels like better made than the cheaper units (like this
