XLR to RCA conversion

I am using a balanced preamp (Atma-Sphere) with a single ended power amp (Primaluna).
It has a ground loop hum that I can’t seem to get rid of.  I am told a transformer will probably work.  Can anybody recommend an XLR to RCA transformer that will work?  Brand, model, and who sells it?

Thanks in advance!!

If you're talking about this model then it looks to be the exact same thing and PE has them in stock.

I am wondering if the PC-2XR will work.

I think it should work and if you order from PE it comes with a 60 day no hassle return policy.

@jackd yes, I am communication with Ralph.  He recommended lots of ideas which I tried.  His most recent suggestion is a Jensen transformer, but the specific model he recommended isn’t available.  That’s why I posted.

He recommended the Jensen PI-2XR.

You can call Jensen directly, they can answer your question, if Ralph doesn't do it first. When I called. they gave me a nice discount, too.

@hifinut51 I know someone that bought that exact ISOMAX unit only 2 weeks ago. Did you talk to anyone at Jensen?
