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

I have a high efficiency tube SET and horn system. I found that “properly” utilizing a complete Puritan grounding system gave me excellent results.

Specifically:

1. Started with a PM 156 conditioner

2. Grounded the 156 to a dedicated City Master

3. For components, added a Route Master and grounded every component.

4. Grounded the Route Master with its own City Master

Hope that helps.
