Copper Sleeve over IEC


There has been several threads on AA about putting a 1 1/2" copper union (coupler) over the IEC on the CD Player, Preamp, Amp.

Well I tried it...

Anyone else give it a try?

Could someone direct me to the Marantz video of connecting the ground wire to the wall receptacle?

I have an Esoteric X-03 with a ground pin.I have no hum issues, just looking for improved performance.

I once had a hum in a turntable set up and running a wire from it's ground to the screw on the faceplate of the wall receptacle did the trick.

Suggested it to a friend with a humming Sunfire sub and it also worked.

My concern is that the cd player is on a separate dedicated line than the wall recptacle.

Will any harm/benefit be done with such a grounding scheme?
Ozzy,

Have you tried a copper sleeve on the IEC into your power conditioner?
