The Korena take

StageBug SB-6 is a passive two-channel isolator for cleaning up stereo guitar racks, pedalboards, and other dual-channel audio paths. Its two transformers address hum and buzz from ground loops while covering 20Hz–20kHz. Dual ground lifts provide additional noise-reduction options, and the -15dB pad accommodates high-level outputs. When feeding powered speakers or guitar amplifiers, the polarity-reverse switch can correct cancellation caused by speakers operating out of phase. It inserts with 1/4-inch TRS connections and needs no power.

Who this is for
