Grounding from China!

[tony]

Seems a new product is available to deal with grounding issues. Spot the Entreq Tellus type looks minus the high prices.
Some people are reporting improvements with it. At least I suppose it is affordable.

How does that box work? Seems like it is filled with coals!

[tony]

Minerals my dear boy. Special grounding coals. It might be smoky coal!

Adam will be very disappointed with the crocodile clips instead of the special cable entreq use:)

Is it not magnatite - the same as is in the Entreq boxes?
Nige will be all over that with the crocodile clips :)

Are they "Nige approved" audiophile standard crocodile clips?

BTW, I had a pencil case like that when I was in primary school - knew I should have held onto it with all my graphite shavings in it - would have been worth money today :)

Excellent does this mean Adam is not required to drill out his Entreq box as we have the black coal substance covered.
So we need Nige approve crocodile clips a bag of magnatite and some copper and we are in business.
Hope there is no soldering required!!

Is that magnetite for sure?!

Tony, you'll be surprised how much difference a good ground cable can make!

This seems to be pics of one opened up http://www.monoandstereo.com/2015/12/en ... ystem.html
Someone guessed that the black stuff was magnetite - it's finer granules than the ebay stuff but looks like it could be magnetite. Magnetite is a naturally occurring mineral of iron & the most magnetic of all minerals. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetite

So, onto ebay where can you can buy magnetite - but I only see it from the US for $20 (15lbs) & $30 shipping

I have a magnetic trap on my central heating system which I believe traps magnetite - a black sludge - I open it every now & then to clean off this black sludge that has collected on the plastic casing around the magnets. Anybody want to buy this sludge from me - it will take about 10 years to fill a pencil case box ? :)
