WHIRLWIND LINE BALANCER/SPLITTER

The Whirlwind Line Balancer/Splitter is designed to split a single line level input signal
into two balanced line level outputs. A choice of two output configurations is provided:
one direct output and one isolated output, or two isolated outputs. The Line Balancer/
Splitter uses Whirlwind’s TRSP-600L transformer and has a frequency response of 20
to 20kHz, ±1dB @ +2OdBm.
On the Line Balancer/Splitter are two male XLR jacks, one female XLR jack, a ¼” jack
and three switches as outlined below:

INPUT
Either of the two input connectors, a female XLR jack or a ¼” TRS jack (Tip = Pin 2 and
Ring = Pin 3) can be used for connection from a line level source, balanced or
unbalanced. Use only one input at a time.

OUTPUTS
The male XLR output connectors can be configured in one of two ways. The ISOLATED
OUT/SPLIT 1 is always transformer isolated and the DIRECT OUT/SPLIT 2 is either
directly connected to the input or transformer isolated, depending on the position of the
OUTPUT SELECT switch.

OUTPUT SELECT
This push-button switch selects the output mode of the unit. In the “out” position, the
DIRECT OUT/SPLIT 2 provides a direct output signal and the ISOLATED OUT/SPLIT 1
provides a balanced 600Ω isolated signal. In the “in” position (the center of the switch
changes to orange) both output connectors provide a balanced 150Ω ? isolated signal
that is attenuated by 6dB from the input.

GND/LIFTS

Each of these switches disconnects the ground between the inputs and the XLR outputs when
set to the LIFT position. Grounds remain connected when set to the “GND” position.
