Stay grounded


A few recent experiences have reemphasized the importance of good ground connections: I started by adding an Acoustic Revive RGC-24 to my InnuOs Zenith Mk3 streamer. Furthermore I added an Akiko Audio Black Box to the ground rail of my fuse box. And lastly I added a Chinese sourced grounding box to my Draytek router via USB connection. In each instance the effect was less than subtle: like snapping a camera objective into focus. I live in a single house with a very substantial grounding rod; nevertheless it seems that connection to ground via the fuse box is less than perfect. Thinking of adding grounding boxes to the speakers next.

Yep. Some well grounded people believe that these apparatus are effective only if there is a deficiency in the system that needs to be addressed. We are probably lucky 😀

My experience was somewhat different. I had the Synergistic Research Active Ground Block SE in my system with all the necessary and recommended ground leads for a few months. When I took it out, I didn’t notice any difference so I sold it. Their PC12 SE on the other hand has been my go to conditioner for a while and I love it.Â
