Radial Engineering LX8 Rackmount Line-Level Splitter & Isolator

The Radial Engineering LX8 is an eight-channel passive line-level splitter designed to send multiple channels to three destinations at once, while providing transformer isolation and eliminating hum and buzz caused by ground loops.

Radial Engineering LX8 Rackmount Line-Level Splitter & Isolator

The Radial Engineering LX8 is specifically designed for managing balanced signal splitting in professional audio systems. Its single rack space design features a 100% passive circuit, meaning it operates without any power.

Each of the eight channels is equipped with a premium Jensen® JT-123-SLPC transformer, capable of handling transients exceeding +26dB at all frequencies down to 20Hz without audible distortion. This ensures accurate signal transfer with minimal phase shift or distortion.

In larger systems, the Radial Engineering LX8 offers significantly lower noise, making it the ideal choice for demanding multi-channel audio setups.

Features

  • 8-Channel balanced line level splitter & isolator
  • Handles +26dB signals without distortion or noise
  • Jensen transformer-equipped for exceptional audio quality
  • Eliminates buzz and hum caused by ground loops

 

Using the Radial Engineering LX8 to split line levels on stage
Recording live using high quality preamps delivers the best results. Connect your preamps to the LX8 and split the signal to the recorder and the PA using the isolation to eliminate hum & buzz caused by ground loops.

Using the Radial Engineering LX8 to feed two different audio systems
Running audio around various environments such as large venues, multi-function rooms or broadcast facilities can often lead to noise polluting the audio system. The Radial LX8 eliminates noise problems due to ground loops.

Using the Radial Engineering LX8 to feed delay towers
In larger installations, running audio to multiple destinations can cause havoc with noise due to uncertain power conditions. The Radial LX8 isolates the second output to eliminate ground loops, reducing system set-up problems.

The Radial LX8 is an 8-channel line level splitter that enables the system designer to split and isolate high output audio signals and distribute them without fear of distortion or artefact. The passive 19″ rack mount design employs ultra-high performance Jensen® transformers to handle signals in excess of +25dB. This makes the LX8 particularly useful when managing high system levels where eliminating noise due to ground loop contamination is required.

The compact single RU design features a choice of XLR, D-Sub and Euro-block connectors make the LX8 easy to integrate in all types of systems.
