Tripoint Grounding Question - Troy Signature and Troy NG

hi @garebear,

sorry if i did not respond to your previous question. sometimes questions do stack up and i lose track....or i get a little unstuck and behind. i enjoy answering, so it’s not a bother to me.

to answer your Tripoint question; for sure "what" Tripoint does, has the greatest effect on sources, particularly solid state sources and preamps. i have a Troy Sig and an Elite (both non NG). my Troy Sig is on my darTZeel amp mono blocks and speakers. my Elite is on my sources.

so put your best Tripoint device and best Tripoint cables on your most significant source gear. #1--preamp, #2--dac, #3---phono.

not had the ’NG’ level Tripoint in my system...yet. congrats if you can snag one.

in the USA mostly you deal with Miguel directly.

i also own a number of Entreq boxes and they have their place in the big picture. in my system i use the Tripoint as the main signal path chassis grounding. and with Tripoint the better cables make significant differences. i would say Tripoint’s influence is relative to their price difference. too bad it works that way, but that is my experience.

where the Entreq takes my system to a higher level is on my separate bass towers. i have the Poseidon and 3 Silver Minimus’s on my two bass towers and it does make my bass more sexy and dimensional. love it there.

the newest Entreq appears to go to a higher level and is more expensive, i have no experience with it.
