Am I getting this wrong? Perhaps, line level doesn't matter.

Can someone chime in on the effects of using an open frame transformer in a splitter box? I'm curious whether shielding is required in a box full of only passive components. It seems that the outer case (heavy duty steel) would provide enough shielding.

Thanks.

It's a 1:1 transformer so it doesn't change the impedance of the input or output. If mic level transformers were used and you needed to split a line level signal the transformer might saturate.
I think a shielded transformer would be better too but the box does provide a little shielding.
