Why customers choose it

• Hum: Eliminated: The Samson MLI1 is a line-level passive isolation box designed to remove hum and buzz caused by ground loops, as well as to convert unbalanced signals to balanced signals for long cable runs. Combining premium sound circuitry with durable, roadworthy construction, the MLI1 provides high-quality signal connection solutions for live, broadcast, and studio applications.
• Frequency Flatness: The MLI1 features Samson’s STL transformer that delivers an extended, ruler flat frequency response from 10Hz–35kHz (±0.2dB) with ultra-low distortion. The transformer isolates the input signal from the output signal, removing any DC noise.
• Roadworthy Construction: Housed in a 14-gauge steel chassis, the MLI1 is built to withstand the abuse of the most demanding live tours. Its rigid outer shell protects all the MLI1 internal connections, switches and solder joints from failure, ensuring quiet, reliable performance.
• Say Goodbye to Hum and Buzz: The MLI1 is provides high-quality signal connections, eliminating ground loops and isolating your audio.
• Live SoundWhat is Balanced Audio?: If you work with gear like audio interfaces, home studio mixers, or portable PA systems, you’ve probably seen input jacks marked Hi-Z. You might have heard of these Hi-Z inputs or seen them in spec sheets, and you might even know that the “Z” stands for “impedance”, so “Hi-Z” is short for “high impedance”.
