Did anyone experience Audio Prism's Ground Control

I am using the walkers (two) on each speaker. One for the bass, one for the mids/high posts and one for the center channel. Using Ref and standard GC on the BD player output with superb results.

The Detail Magnifiers I have seen with the higher grade parts are still nowhere near the level of the walker reference + components, construction or triple cryo process.

Best,

Odd

Already having Reference GC’s on my speakers, I purchased a second pair of Reference GC’s terminated with RCA’s to try them on my amp (I run XLR IC’s leaving the RCA inputs open). When I didn’t notice much improvement with the GC’s on the amp, I moved one of the GC’s to an RCA input on my JL Audio F112 subwoofer. When I initially set up my sub, I painstakingly followed Jim Smith’s advice (Better Sound), and that worked pretty well. I found however that taking just 2 seconds to install the GC on my sub was the preverbal icing on the cake that pulled everything together. These GC’s are pretty amazing.

Raks,
Take the other RCA and plug it into your preamp input or output jacks if possible. Then, if your CD player has an additional analog output, try it in that position. If you are using an outboard DAC you will be surprised at how the CD player sounds with an RCA GC installed, compared to the DAC.

Bud, I just removed the RCA Ground Controls from my system and the bass and overall sound quality seemed to improve.
I still kept the spade Ground Controls at the speaker and Amp ends.

Is it possible that I had too much of the Ground Control?
Or perhaps there is a need to remove them for a period of time every so often?

Well, I know you had quite a few in the system, so it is quite possible you had too many. I would let the system play for a number of hours to completely discharge and then try just one location in addition to the speakers again.

You could just as easily be hearing change as a better thing, for more of them or less of them. Very easy to get caught in that loop.

My system hasn't changed notably for quite a while. I do periodically unplug and replug all connections though, so it is entirely possible that is enough interruption and you do actually need a short system down time. We all are exploring this territory, no actual rules other than no more than two per individual component and none hooked to a digital SPDIF RCA plug, or any other unbuffered digital ground connection, ever.
