Re: Grounding

I am still chucking over the cryogenic ear thing.

Even though you may have a dedicated circuit for your audio, everything probably shares the same ground. You can talk to an electrician about running a separate ground rod to your audio dedicated circuit breaker (s).

I have a friend that did something similar in that he ran 2 separate grounding rods into the ground (6’ apart) and ran a 10-gauge wire to the coupled rods. He then ran the new grounding wire to the audio breaker.

It may not only cure your problem, but also lower your noise floor in general.

Please don’t try this without professional help.
