Post Subject: IC shieldsPosted by N-set on: 2/13/2012

Paul, so far the interconnect shields were connected to the phono pre grounding bolt only--I do not want to pass
any equalizing currents between the TT and the phono via the shields (the TT chassis, armtube, etc was
connected to the same place via a dedicated wire).
The ground plane is connected to that bolt
in a star-like manner, so given a direct DC path to the earth or the ground plane I hope the noise will pick the direct path.
Now I've cooked an interconnect which is double shielded so I can experiment with shiled
connections--outer, more noisy to the TT, inner to the phono, etc.
Cheers,
Nset
