Jea48,
Thanks for the test procedure for polarity of an ISO. Yes, a lot of us are interested in using ISOs on our systems, and this should be useful. I would have assumed that a manufacturer would mark the polarity somehow on the case. I guess not?
It might be helpful if you explained the labling conventions (X and H) to the general audience, especially if these are commonly used across manufacturers.
Also, I am interested in whether you are leaving the secondary floating (no connection between common and ground on the output side) when connected to your CDP? I believe that is the recommended approach in order to maximize noise isolation.
Finally, can you report to us in more detail the differences in sound now that you can listen both with and without the ISO?
