Audio/IEMs
“This class of audio ground-loop isolator uses galvanic isolation and inline transformer-style circuitry to break ground loops and typically provides unity gain while introducing potential frequency-response and distortion changes; useful for removing hum and alternator whine but can raise harmonic distortion and has limited input/headroom. Good for audiophile/carab audio setups needing hum removal, but expect possible measurable THD increase and impedance/compatibility tradeoffs.”
