Waversa EXT Reference Isolator

The Waversa EXT Reference Isolator range of noise isolators from Waversa remove RFI, EMI, and Impulse noise from digital sources. This is a Level ’10’ performance device with a high-grade, vibration dampening chassis featuring patented technology. Available with the following connector types, RCA, BNC, LAN (RJ45) and USB. An HDMI version is likely to be available in early 2024 and the price is to be confirmed.

One of the most significant problems for digital audio systems is the degradation of sound caused by noise. EMI (Electromagnetic Interference), RFI (Radio Frequency Interference), and Impulse noise are major sources of digital noise.

Waversa has dedicated considerable time to researching this issue and has developed patented passive filter technology to effectively reduce these forms of signal distortion. This innovative solution helps to maintain high-quality audio reproduction and minimize the impact of unwanted noise.

The Waversa WEXT Reference Isolators set a new standard of performance, offering a 10x improvement over the original EXT-1 model. This is achieved by combining multiple patented passive elements of higher quality, resulting in a significantly enhanced electromagnetic ‘immune’ effect.

In addition, the isolators feature a high-grade aluminium chassis that is CNC’d to exacting standards. The chassis is designed with modular chambers filled with a dampening material, providing further isolation from harmful vibrational energy and ensuring optimal performance.

The patented Waversa isolator technology acts as an electromagnetic noise immune system, providing effective protection for your audio system. Waversa isolators prevent impulse noise generated within a connected system, such as a DAC and amplifier, from being transmitted from one component to another.

Digital signals are essentially time-domain-dependent differentials of voltage that signify a value. Voltage overshoot and undershoot within a digital signal circuit can cause sound degradation.

By utilising Waversa’s patented Isolator technology, these overshoot and undershoot values are significantly minimized, greatly improving the integrity of the signal and preserving the inherent resolution of the recording.
