Editorial Review: Product Description: Ever wondered why sometimes your stereo speakers start to hum when you plug certain components in?The most likely cause of humming in audio equipment is due to a ground loop in your home or apartment mains power wiring. A ground loop occurs through differences in resistance in the electrical system. When you connect your computer to your stereo, a path is provided for electricity to flow from one wall socket to another as the electrical system tries to balance itself. This causes your speakers to hum.Xitel's ground loop isolator has been fully designed, built and tested to exacting standards for high fidelity audio applications. It works by breaking the earth between your computer or audio components and stereo so there's no path for current from an electrical imbalance to flow. This prevents your speakers from humming! It's a simple and effective way of eliminating ground loop issues without having to resort to an electrician.Turn the power of your computer or audio component and home stereo system off. Plug the cable end of the ground loop isolator marked stereo directly into your stereo RCA input. Plug the RCA cable running from your computer or audio component into the RCA connectors on the ground loop isolator marked input. That's all there is to it! No more ground loop hum! Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - This is the one to get !The Xitel is a great product. It solves ground loop problems and leaves the quality of the audio signal untouched. No hum. This is the 2nd one I have purchased. It's worth the $'s Rating: - Does the jobI purchased this to fix a hum in my MFW-15 sub woofer (av123). It completely removed the hum and I'm able to turn up the gain to 100% with no issue. Good build quality and worth every penny. Rating: - Buzz EliminatedThe Xitel totally eliminated the buzz from our Praise Team's keyboard. The RCA output on the keyboard has plagued us for several years after new lighting was installed. Several ground lift contraptions did not work or picked up radio stations. Rating: - Works great with Macbook Pro and Bose Lifestyle 12This product stopped the static and what sounded like sound being created from the graphics card. For example, if I would scroll through a window, I would hear a slight increase in the noise. It isn't the same noise as an alternator hum from a car, but it is just as annoying. Now, it doesn't even sound like my stereo is on since I was so used to the static. The static wasn't loud, but it was loud enough to notice during quieter scenes during a movie. I was skeptical ... Read More Rating: - Reduces hum, but badly distorts and attenuates vocalsI bought this product to reduce hum between my TV / DVD player and stereo receiver that I use to play movie audio through my sound system. The two are connected with ~25' of shielded RCA cables. Though the Xitel did reduce ground loop hum, it attenuated the vocals of the movies I tested it with so badly that they were barely audible. The hum was much better than not hearing the vocals at all! This product clearly has significant design flaws. I am attempting to return it and would not purchase it again.
