really? .89c ground lifters?

if i understand correctly (and I'm guessing that I don't), only one component in a given system should be grounded.

so does that mean that all you guys with your GNP-level systems, plumbed with bazillion dollar power cords, are using a bucketful of home depot-style ground lifters? I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around that. Is there some source for solid-gold cryo'd ground lifters I have not found?

How is this problem addressed? My searching skills are failing this morning...there was a lot of chilean and argentinean wine involved last night. thanks.

I use a piece of teflon plumbing tape to cover the ground of the IEC male inlet on the back of each component. Simple, effective, and no additional connections are needed. You can also use a piece of electrical tape.

Lifting the ground may lower the noise floor in some components. I also use a specialized external grounding unit that is a noise sink.
