Earthing

Posted by: Naheed on 30 December 2000

A while back i had earthing problems (leading to audbile hum through my speakers), so the guys at Naim suggested using the TT binding post to earth the preamp to my ac socket (this worked really well - but later i found out it was a faulty snaic at fault).

However, i still leave the TT earth connected, and at the moment i don't want to start experimenting on/off benefits, as i'm still getting used to some recent upgrades.

Anyone, tried this, doing this ???

What is a TT post? confused

And how did you connect it to the mains a/c earth (via a standard mains plug?)

I just used a length of solid core wire, attached this to the TT (turntable ground - in between your bnc's), then attached the other end to the earth pin on a standard plug and plugged that into a spare outlet...
