Lehle P-Split III

Description

Lehle P-Split III

The Lehle P-Split III stands for ”passive splitting” with maximum signal fidelity. Making it possible to route an instrument can be routed to two amplifiers simultaneously.

Output A is electrically isolated from Output B by the Lehle LTHZ high end transformer – so ground loops are excluded from the start. In addition, the Lehle P-Split II also features a gold-plated-contact phase-reversing and ground switch.

• Passive splitter and DI box
• Absolutely no signal loss or hum
• High-impedance LEHLE TRANSFORMER HZ with phase and ground switch
• Suitable for balanced or unbalanced signals

The LEHLE P-SPLIT III combines passive splitting with the highest possible signal fidelity.
Its applications range from splitting signals and eliminating hum, to balancing and reamplification along with any signal routing that requires a clean signal free from noise.
At its core is the high-end LEHLE TRANSFORMER HZ, which galvanically isolates the two outputs, eliminating any possibility of ground loops. The LEHLE TRANSFORMER HZ was specially designed for use with high-impedance signals but also splits low-impedance signals with uncompromising sound quality. The signal can be picked off either symmetrically or asymmetrically from the ISO output.
By using the phase inverter switch with gold-plated contacts you can flip the signal phase at the ISO output, preventing phase cancellation from impairing signal reproduction.
The classic application for the LEHLE P-SPLIT III is splitting an input signal to two outputs, enabling you to connect an instrument to two devices, which may, for example, be two amplifiers, or an amp and a mixer/recording unit (PC/DAW). Thanks to its ability to pick off the balanced signal on the ISO output, the LEHLE P-SPLIT III is also eminently suitable for use as a high-quality compact DI box for all types of signal.
Another useful application for the LEHLE P-SPLIT III is as a hum suppressor. Frequently background noise caused by ground loops occurs when two electronic devices are connected to each other. The LEHLE P-SPLIT III provides a simple, but extremely effective remedy when installed between the two units. Using the ISO output, the devices are galvanically isolated and background noise becomes a thing of the past.
You can even use the versatile LEHLE P-SPLIT III as a passive mono summing unit for a stereo signal by using the DIR output as second input.
And just in case you are looking for a power connection: the LEHLE P-SPLIT III performs all its functions without any need for a power supply.
