Default Is my LT44 transformer suitable for audio (de)coupling?

600- 600 ohm transformers are used on balanced pro equipment. Or
more likely once were in valve days. Most balanced audio these days

Ground isolating transformers these days will be usually 10k in and
out.


Wow, now that's got me confused!

I am not using old tube equipment and I'm not using pro stuff either.
Instead of 600-600 ohm, you seem to be saying that I need 10K-10K ohm.

Can you or someone else explain this a little please.

10K-10K seems very different from the 600-600 which I was about to get!


Well, what exactly is it you're trying to accomplish? Your original post
was quite vague, and seems to have been lost in a sea of speculation -

What are you trying to connect to what?

And if you have a ground loop, the solution is to diagnose and repair
the loop itself, rather than apply band-aids.

What do you have now, and what are you trying to do?

Thanks,
