EMI FIELDS


Will putting a nickel and copper emi rfi fabric on top the cd/dvd player help with stopping Static electricity. Ive seen where it was used on the turn table with felt over that.

I was getting a buzz through my goertz interconnects from my pre to my amp as they passed by the back of the TV.
Here is what I did
First I moved the cables as far away as possible (there was still a slight buzz). So then I bout a sheet of “Shielding fabric” a polyester cloth available with a copper and nickel coating.
I used the sheet of the copper and nickel shielding and draped it over the back of the TV and the buzz in my system was eliminated and believe this or not it made the TV picture more sharp.
(I did move the interconnects away from the TV but still was getting the corruption). My question is, will this need to be grounded?
It is not touching any metal that I can see. But it is up against the TV back where I discovered the EMI was coming from and like I said it really worked, It seams you know your stuff and I thought this is a question for you.
Thank you from Mario
Thank you Musicnoise. If I ground, I suppose I could run a wire from the sheet to the ground screw on any outlet? I will take your advice on the book/books!
