Dear Customer
Unfortunately, sources of disturbances in audio systems still manifest nowadays. They are called electromagnetic interferences that may appear as distortion or so-called ground loops. These disturbances can enter a system by galvanic coupling, magnetic and electromagnetic or electrostatic fields. But it doesn‘t have to be that way. We provide accurate solutions! You can‘t protect your system from these influences but you can take precautions to not let these sources of interference disturb the system.
Our passive adapters eliminate these unpleasant phenomena due to proper shielding and grounding as well as galvanic isolation between input and output. We also develop customised galvanic insulators for audio and video. Please visit our website or contact us in order for us to support and help you in realising your state-of-the-art projects. We will find a solution that meets your needs. Sincerely, Contrik AG

Combiner Line Combiner Line mixes the two signals left and right by means of a passive network which are balanced by the NTL1-transformer (galvanic isolation) and terminated by a XLR male output. Suitable for stereo equipment with unbalanced phono outputs (RCA) to connect them to a balanced mono input (XLR female).
Splitter Line The splitter distributes the balanced mono output signals of one source to 2x unbalanced phono outputs L + R via NTL1 (galvanic isolation) and a downstream passive network. Especially suited for transmission lines that should remain balanced and be rendered unbalanced just before arriving at the user (recipient).

ZNPKL-SYM-MATCH
ZNPKL-SYM-SPLIT
This matcher is particularly suitable for 2x FLF external floor sockets as multifunctional stereo audio input. All signals are galvanically isolated via a special audio transmitter and led leveladapted to a joint clamp output. The balanced signals XLR (+4dBu) are transferred 1:1 to the rear side clamp output. The unbalanced signals (-10dBV) phono and 6,3 mm stereo jack (Combo) are transformed 1:4 to the clamp output through the same internal transmitter up to an output level of about +4dBu. The phono inputs are switched in parallel to the combo jack input. Hence an output level of about +4dBu can always be reached, irrespective of whether there is a balanced (+4dBu) or an unbalanced input signal (-10dBV). The mass of the balanced (switch position = up) or the unbalanced (switch position = down) source can be connected through to the output with the front switch. When set in mid-position, the mass is interrupted.
Black FLF mounting plate, equipped with one splitter, which is particularly suitable for recording existing balanced stereo transmissions (e.g. interpreter equipment). Galvanic isolation is offered as well as an additional level-adjusted unbalanced RCA output signal. The rear balanced signal (+4dBu) fed on the pressure clamp is splitted into 2 outputs through the internal transmitter (galvanic separation). These connections XLRM (+4dBu, balanced) and RCA (-10dBV, unbalanced) are provided to make the signal available for further signal processing.

ZNPKL2-3.5-XLRM Unbalanced to balanced stereo converter for e.g. PC soundcards (input: 3.5 mm stereo plug, output: 2x XLR 3p male). 1:1 transmission for signals with 600 Ω (ohm) impedance, stereo line up to 6 V, frequency: 30 Hz–40 KHz.
Impedance Transformers Aes/EBU (SPDIF) For long cable runs it is appropriate to use low attenuation coaxial cables instead of twisted pair (STP) cables. Adapters of the Neutrik NADIT series can be used as transformers. They passively transform the characteristic impedance of a balanced 110 Ω (ohm) twisted pair cable to a 75 Ω (ohm) unbalanced coaxial cable and vice versa.
