Today’s review dear friends, is of the Torus Power RM-15 Plus power isolation transformer. It utilizes a unique toroidal transformer specifically designed for audio and video purposes by a company called Plitron Manufacturing. The Torus is the fifth isolation transformer unit that I have used and is clearly the best though many of those other transformers were used years ago. My unit was designed for 120 volt wall power, but others allow 240 volt wall input and 120 volt outputs.
This unit has 10 medical grade AC outlets that tightly grasped my AC plugs. The unit weighs just over 70 pounds and is 17 inches in width, 16 inches deep and 6.4 inches tall. It has an on/off switch and a heavy-duty AC power cord, though at the very beginning I did use an Exemplar Portal AC cord.
Torus makes every effort to keep the output impedance low (.2 Ohms), in addition to isolating the outputs from all line AC distortions. This allows for instantaneous peaks of 400 amps when needed and the dynamic headroom for big amplifiers was immediately evident using the Torus on both the amplifiers I used.
There is surge protection built into this unit using a patented series-made surge removal rather than MOVs. LoNo and Imin technologies are used to provide “unconstrained yet protected” AC for your system.
