Grounding cable gauge size


For those of you using external grounding source devices, units such as Entreq, Nordost, Synergistic, etc. What size wire gauge seems to work the best?

Thanks for the replies. I'm not keen on adding an additional earth grounding rod. Mostly I fear that with a lightning strike there would be 2 paths to ground.

I also own a Sorcer X4 and the new I/O unit for usb and ethernet. Great equipment.

Ozzy,

I'm with you. That's why I'm going with the plug in unit.

I've learnt that Russ Andrews is having a 25% sale starting on the March 28. That's off the purchase price but then the cable is not included with the sale. Personally I'm happy to do my own cabling.

pedroeb,

Is there a USA version of the Russ Andrews Plug In RF Router?

Ozzy, yes it’s listed on the last page #3 under all grounding products.  Made to order at 217 vs 228 on the uk version.

Now I am again amazed what the Entreq grounding box does. I just added a Peak 4 to one of the Silver Tellus terminals. This device is a wooden knob, I guess hollowed out with some metals inside. (I think they claim there is 5 different metals). It just screws on in place of one of the wooden nuts that hold the cable in place.

Son of a gun, this little thing does add more detail. At first I thought it to be a bit too bright especially in the upper midrange/treble area but now a day later has emerged into the soundstage. What I am hearing is more detail throughout.

This sure amazes me since it is only signal grounding. What we don’t know about the crap in the ground connections that is left to discover?
