The Radial IceCube IC-1 is a balanced line level isolator designed to
quickly eliminate hum and buzz problems in an audio system by simply inserting
it into the signal path.
Measuring just over 4" x 1 ½" (10 x 4cm), the compact design begins with
two super-duty glass-filled nylon XLRs at each end with heavy duty nickel-silver
contacts that will not tarnish over time. Unlike other isolators that are made
of plastic, the IceCube is made from solid 16 gauge steel and finished in a
tough powder coat. The steel outer shell is not only more durable, it provides
excellent shielding against electromagnetic fields radiated by power cables,
dimmers, motors and power supplies - delivering consistently quieter results
when deployed. This is augmented with a 'set & forget' ground lift switch to
eliminate hum and buzz caused by ground loops.
Inside the IceCube, a proprietary Eclipse transformer isolates the input
from the output and blocks stray DC currents. While small transformers rarely
perform well below 100Hz, the IceCube is exceptionally linear from 20Hz to
18kHz. It is also able to withstand up to +10dB at 20Hz with less than 0.01%
distortion. It is a quick and easy problem solver that will eliminate noise
without limiting the bandwidth or introducing phase shift, harsh sound or
unpleasant artifacts.
These features combine to make the IceCube an ideal problem solver for the
AV technician and audio engineer that work in the fast-paced world of live
touring, AV rentals and system integration.
