I bought this device for XLR in, RCA out. Going by specifications it should be able to do this just fine, but it actually introduced noise rather than eliminate it. And not just a little, really loud too. Fiddled around a bit but found no solution. Balanced to SE is not this device's strong point...

For other set-ups it might work very well though. Just sharing my experience with this particular device. Too bad it didn't work too, competitor's transformers are MUCH more expensive!

Works like should
Kalleks 19.08.2019
Works very well for my configuration. There is no noise and the necessary bandwidth is available. The cable length is approximately 60 meters. An earth connection is a particularly good option.

Invaluable peice of kit
Johnf52 22.06.2015
I have two of these and will probably end up with more! Hum loops can be a pain when setting up a PA rig in "unknown territory" and it wouldnt be the first time that earth wires have been temporarily removed from mains plugs etc, which whilst solving one problem creates another with regards to potential safety. These little beaties put all that behind us. With just about every possibly combination of in and out through phono, jack and xlr you can isolate 95% of all known audio connections. It is also possible with a little cunning to use it as a balanced signal generator/splitter, by using a short phono to phono link on the input side a single xlr or jack input can be fed to both internal transformers producing two separate, balanced outputs. A trick I have used a few times now.

Sturdy and well built a couople of these should be in every sound techs "goody bag"

Good DI
Woody.R 08.12.2014
I've used this DI to connect from my digital piano to a mixer and to a monitor speaker. Two channel inputs and outputs: two mono jack outputs from the piano to the XLR inputs of the DI, and XLR outputs to the mixer and the monitor. Removed nasty humming and buzzing to the 'minimum' (didn't quite completely eliminated the unwanted sound). But I can only hear it when I stick my ear right next to the speakers. The only issue I found was since the male XLR cables do not click or lock on the input female channels, they seemed to slip off sometimes which made me to check regularly if they are plugged in properly. But overall happy about the item and the price.

It's good
Mick V 30.05.2022
I used it for a hum I have in my speakers. I was using technics 1210s, a sub, a mixer and speakers. I changed all leads to xlr first, but the leads from the sub to the speakers were rca's that I just put xlr adapters on. I got the dti but it didn't eliminate the hum. So I've replaced the leads from sub to speakers with direct xlr leads and the hum is gone. I had to bypass the sub as it was those leads I've used. I will purchase now xlr leads and go through the sub again to see if the noise returns. Ultimately the dti didn't solve my problem initially, leads did but I can tell my sound is clearer and more crisp so it does improve sound. I will update this review once I change the leads from the sub and see if that helps.

For computer use

I tried on my guitar rig, it sucks the volume. Maybe not what it meant for. But for reducing hum/ground from computer to PA, yes it does.

Great solution for the problems it is made to solve
Rune O. 12.09.2013
We got an old mixer for free. A large beast, but it was free. It turned out that if you hook a microphone directly to it, you can feel a small, electric jolt on your lips. Not good, it can even be dangerous. Enter the ART DTI. With this baby the jolts went away, and it can even to a small extent solve hum problems caused by ground loops too. I simply love this little thing, and having two separate channels means you can have two microphones instead of one connected or use it for stereo. It is also an adapter, by the way. It now is in permanent use in our rehearsal room. Maybe I'll get one more...

ART Dual Transformer/Isolator
sammo-san 02.02.2021
i got this to help me connect to my SD recorder with XLR. i go from my laptop (via M Audio Air Hub) to the DTI using TRS pair (balanced 1/4" jacks), then to my Denon 300R SD recorder with XLR. works great, and it's well built/feels solid and certainly will put up with studio use (it definitely seems like it's up to 'outdoor'/gig use too; and it's compact enough for on-stage). overall, i'm really happy with it.

I never thought this would work!
Anonymous 09.12.2015
I have been suffering a high pitched whistle on my KRK monitors, since I bought them last month, I tried everything, new cables etc.
Using balanced cables did reduce the noise by 25% but still annoying!
Then a good friend told me about this box!

I have just connected it between my Interface (Mbox) and the monitors, and hey presto, SILENCE! the noise has gone completely.
I am very happy, best 30 quid I have spent in a while!

The unit is small & robust.

I really didn't believe it was gonna work!

Noise Kill
Radoslaw L. 30.03.2016
Absolutely a wonderful device !!!
It was just what I was looking for in my Home studio.
Got rid of all that terrible, static, high pitched noise that was coming out of my Studio Monitors.
It is a really impressive noise killer.
I can Highly recommend this for live use as well as home use.
If you're sick of of ground loops, this is the thing you need !
Now I can work in a complete silence.
I am very impressed with the high quality and not so expensive solution.

Also (Thomann quick delivery always surprises me) :-)

All the Best.
