Hi Anthony.

I am not sure of the best supplier, but they should install right in the 
line between your computer and the amplifier.  The idea is to isolate the 
grounds andcouple the sound signal through a 1 to 1 transformer.  Make sure 
that you have your transformers placed well away from your monitor to avoid 
picking up any stray magnetic field from the monitor.  Enclosing them in a 
metal box might be a good move to reduce that problem.
