Curious on how this compare to Audio Magic Ground Disrupter which operates under similar principles.

GutWire Ultimate Grounding Cable
With the recent reviews, and positive reports from a couple of members here, I decided to take the plunge and order one.

Like others I have been intrigued by the positive reviews for grounding blocks from various companies, but the prices are prohibitive. I decided to spend the extra $100 for the Ultimate over the Perfect as both reviews say it offers significant improvement. I am planning on plugging it into an unused RCA input on my Antique Sound Labs autoformer passive pre. I'll post updates after I get it, and have broken it in.

Guy, For those of you who have only 1 Gutwire, recommend trying Synergistic Research Passive Grounding Block. I purchased one from a good friend with upgraded silver wire and it's a dramatic improvement! Using my UG to power the SR and it elevated the SR GB even further and you have the benefit of grounding all components. Wig |
@ yoby, Created a pig-tale to connect to the ground on my UG RCA, then screwed the barrel down and soldered a silver ETI banana to the other end and it works perfectly; sounds much better than SR basic banana plug. DAC and Tube Pre are connected with RCAs, CD/Transport connected with XLR, Tube Amp and Power Conditioner connected to a screw on chassis with bare wire; each component added were audible improvements in clarity, soundstage depth/width, firmer bass and image localization.

Mine are 18 gauge I believe. https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/synergistic-grounding-block-and-tweaking-it-3?highlight=sr%2B... Wig |
