Post Subject: Wet ground or dry ground?Posted by Bud on: 5/30/2007
Romy and Paul,
Many years ago, when I worked for Mille Nestorovik he used seperate mains and a sperate ground connection for the entire system. Before turning it on for a listening session, he would send me outside to "water" the ground, for a good half hour and about 4 meters around the ground pole. This pole was replaced every two years due to cupric oxide corrosion, a dark red color to the bare copper. The connecting cable was replaced at the same time. A dry ground to a wet ground was audible. A new post and cable was audible, but I have no idea how long it remained so.
