System containing separate pre and power amp

Grounding example 1

Power amplifiers should be grounded independently and direct to the Router as shown above. Additional power amps should be grounded directly to the Router with their own cable. The preamp becomes the 'hub' for your sources.

Choose the appropriate ground wire and connection depending on whether your equipment is earthed or double insulated.


System containing a Turntable and separate Phono stage

Grounding example 2

It’s often very difficult to ground a turntable separately due to the lack of connection points and the material it’s made from i.e. no metal parts. The good news is that it will already have its own ground wire to the phono stage, so there is no need to add a further wire - though, if it's detachable, you could upgrade this to Technical Ground Weave.

Simply ground the phono stage by connecting to the ground terminal with Technical Ground weave and the other end to your amp.

Choose the appropriate ground wire and connection depending on whether your equipment is earthed or double insulated.


Integrating Russ Andrews EVO-S PowerKords

Building on our extensive knowledge of power conditioning and system grounding, the new EVO-S PowerKords allow mains cabling to benefit from intergration with our Grounding System. By designing a unique floating screen system, we are now able to supplement the natural RFI-rejecting properties of Kimber's renowned cable geometry.

Grounding the EVO-S PowerKord
N.B. - individual component Grounding leads omitted for clarity.

EVO-S PowerKord utilises a Screen Interface Pod at the mains plug end of the cable which allows easy connection of the cable to one of our Routers. In this way, residual inteference can be drained away from the cable and diverted to ground via the sophisticated internal circuitry in the routers.

Each individual EVO-S PowerKord must be grounded individually to the Router as shown above. We recommend Premium Technical Ground Weave to get the best from your EVO-S PowerKord.

For best results we strongly recommend EVO-S PowerKords are used with the SuperRouter. This is the primary reason why the SuperRouter has the additional terminals.
