ground control devices


Can anyone share their experience with ground control devices, such as the CAD GC1 or the Granite Audio unit, used in a system with already very low background noise/hum?

I heard a demonstration of the Nordost grounding system at a local dealership.  The system had multiple dedicated power feeds from a dedicated subpanel and was dead quiet.  The addition of the grounding scheme improved the sound to a surprising extent—instruments seemed to float more freely in space instead of being pasted to the back wall, small detail and dynamic changes were more natural.  I would have bought the system except for the fact that it must be hooked up to an unused input on each component and iI don’t have such an input on my amp (chassis ground does not work).
It is certainly something to look into, at least as effective as good power conditioners, in my experience.
