Affordable Grounding


My Frankenstereo has assorted grounding elements behind the rack.    The head end of the streaming chain is in another room.  At the wall outlet, there’s Nordost QBase 4 Mk II – with a ground lug.    

I tried this inexpensive grounding tweak clipped on to the lug.  Subtle – but it works.  More transparency.    Probably similar results with the Puritan Ground Master – and other brands.  Worth a try!  Certainly more affordable than an Entreq.    I purchased the cheapest one with the copper wire/paper cylinder.  (Not a fan of silver-plated wire.)

YMMV

Just a general comment, you do NOT want a separate ground path other than the ground path of the circuit breaker.  This will cause the breaker to no trip in the event of overload and is a massive code violation and fire hazard.  No sane electrician who valued his license would do it.

 

A dedicated line (perhaps with a dedicated ground) for the box is ideal.
