Did anyone experience Audio Prism's Ground Control

Alleung,

For your first pair, I would recommend that you get the Standard Ground Control and put them on your midrange. Then another pair for your woofer.

With that experience you could try a pair of Reference at your amplifier terminals, keeping in mind that you will have 30 days to evaluate them. You can then move the GC's around to see how they affect your system differently.

Reference Lacee Inquiry about DIY Ground Control. Yes, 5-7/8 inch loop of multi-stranded cable works fine. Seems to have benefit (more or less) on various components.

Just as it should. Keep in mind that we are fooling around with a fairly Hi Q manipulation of some very subtle field effects. Anything that you do to increase surface area vs dielectric material in that wire loop will have an effect upon the sound. Heck, just removing the plastic knob from you speaker terminals will have an audible effect. Not all of these will be "beneficial".

I tried the EVS and they did not work anywhere near as effectively as the reference GC's I have on my speakers, now. I am, so far, the only one to have a not-so-positive situation with the EVS GE's. That means nothing, though, to anyone else, as everything with either the EVS or AP is system dependent. I am only reporting so folks can get a balanced idea, not to knock any of the designs between the two mfrs.

So far, the AP ref GC's on all of my speakers has provided an immensely satisfying experience with immensely focused sound stage, wide open, clean, clear and removal of haze/grunge so much so that it is startling at times.

Note, too, I recently added the superb Walker Reference Plus HDL's to my speakers along with the AP reference GC's. These definitely work synergistically/cumulatively as they work in a totally different fashion in the application. With both, the noise floor just dropped into total blackness, speakers completely gone in my room, left with a super clean, clear multi channel image without any glaze, grunge or high frequency glare. I was, frankly, totally amazed. What I previously thought was a totally clean, hash/grain free background I found was not at all. Not until I finally added the Walker Audio's to the equation along with the AP GC's. I still have to add a set of the Walkers to the woofers in the bi-wire and bi-amp application on 4 speakers later this week. I am told that it is a suprising difference where one would not expect a change but is rather large in terms of bass definition, speed and dynamics as well. I am looking forward to that soon.

I just ordered as standard set of GC's for my amp and receiver amp outputs to see how they balance with the refs on my speakers. This should be interesting.

What this all proves is these doggoned things are immensely system dependent. Some folks found no change with the AP but found large changes with the EVS. Others, with both. Mine, no go on the EVS but AP is two thumbs up. This proves Bud's point that you really need to try them and see how they will work in differing places in your system.

I have two more sets of standard GC wrapped up for Christmas to add to the bass of my Martin Logans and to my amp. December 26th, I will be in my soundroom all day, can't wait.

I will report back after that with my findings. As already stated, I have a set on the stator panels already which did an amazing job of improving things.

Cheers
