C'mon Maude.......... sigh.... . rejection........


Can someone tell me, or direct me somewhere that explains Common Mode Rejection in isolation transformers and how the dB ratings translate.
Also, is it better to bring in 220V to the IT then go to the subpanel at 120V? Is one IT at 5KVA better than two at 2.5KVA (or 3KVA)?

Hello there, I actually was reading your old ad for the clear image audio t4 that recently sold.
I haven't found anyone else who owns us so I was wondering if I can ask you a few questions.

I just bought one of those used, no manual, and no original power cord.

Just wondered a couple things:

One, any power cord you would recommend? I know they came with Kimber.
Two, what exactly do the rocker switches in the back do? I know there are 3 positions, neutral in the middle, up, and down...

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

thanks
Steve
My system runs off a 30 amp, 220V dedicated line using a 3.0 KW ONEAC CB2338 isolation transformer/filter. If you can install one big transformer before the sub panel that would be better. There's plenty of info in the archives.

Noise reduction specifications should be given at different frequencies. Usually the specs are better as frequency goes up. I use a quad isolation transformer/filter array (Clear Image T4) for my line level components. The T4 uses toroidal transformers, which are better at reducing noise in the audio band. I also use an Audio Power parallel filter with the T4 to deal with transverse mode noise. It makes a very noticeable improvement. You can have this done w/ the Auricaps VenHaus Audio sells.
