Waversa Systems WLAN EXT1 LAN Isolator

 

The Waversa Systems WLAN EXT1 LAN Isolator offers a cutting-edge solution to the pervasive problem of noise interference in digital audio systems. Designed to combat EMI, RFI, and impulse noise, this Level 1 performance device features patented passive filter technology housed within a high-grade nickel chassis. Compatible with various connector types including RCA, BNC, LAN (RJ45), and USB, the isolator effectively removes signal distortion, preserving audio quality and enhancing the listening experience.

With a focus on ease of installation and impeccable performance, the Waversa LAN Isolator acts as an electromagnetic noise immune system, safeguarding your audio setup from harmful impulse noise generated between connected components like DACs and amplifiers. By minimising voltage overshoot and undershoot within digital signal circuits, this innovative technology ensures optimal signal integrity and resolution, delivering a pristine audio output.

Furthermore, the WLAN Isolator stands out for its ability to remove RFI and impulse noise with unparalleled precision, reviving subtle nuances and musical details that were previously obscured. Unlike traditional noise filters that may compromise sound quality, the WLAN Isolator maintains the integrity of the audio signal, extending the frequency range while preserving clarity and depth. Whether used in conjunction with other Waversa products or as a standalone solution, the WLAN Isolator promises to elevate your digital audio experience with its advanced noise reduction capabilities and refined sonic performance.

 

EMI / RFI / Impulse Noise

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 minimise the impact of unwanted noise.

 

RFI / Impulse Noise

 

Level 1 Performance

The Waversa Reference Isolators provide an electromagnetic “immune” effect, offering advanced protection for your audio system. With a high-grade nickel chassis, the EXT-1 Isolator ensures significant protection against harmful Impulse noise and effectively reduces its transmission between digital components.

 

Easily Installable between cables

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.

 

Easily Installed Between Cables

 

Overshoot, Undershoot Measurement

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 minimised, greatly improving the integrity of the signal and preserving the inherent resolution of the recording.

Verified Buyer
I tried out this device on Mark's recommendation after we discussed upgrading my existing Eversolo DMP-A6 streamer, which I am currently using as a digital transport into my Ayon DAC.

Mark was of the opinion that, instead of upgrading my Eversolo to a dedicated streaming transport, I'd get a bigger improvement by better isolating the DMP-A6 from digital noise coming from my router by buying the Waversa. Mark also pointed out that the device would also make the most of any new streaming transport I brought going forward. Since I've always considered the environment of any system to be at least as important as the system itself, I took the plunge.

Well, as Mark promised, the effect of inserting the Waversa between the router and Eversolo was 'night and day.' Since no powering down is required, I've gone back-and-forth several times to confirm what I noticed right from the off; with the Waversa cleaning up the digital stream, the music is simply more palpable and beautiful. Notes gain some improvement in timbre and definition, but what is impressive is how solid, organic and authoritative the sound becomes. There is an extra vibrancy, richness and body to every note, from a weightier bass right up to a more incisive treble. The soundstage fills with a resonant interplay of instruments that feels more analogue than digital in character. It's about presenting music in a more satisfying, palpable way, rather than unearthing micro details which impress but ultimately do not add to musical enjoyment.

Removing the Waversa makes the sound instantly thinner and hollow of feeling. I recommend this device to anyone who's looking to improve their streamer. It might save you a lot of money changing core components and get you a bigger upgrade, to boot. Mark told me I'd never send the Waversa back. He was right.
