Technical Ground Tri-briad MONO 3.5mm Jack to Banana
Minijack Technical Ground Tri-braid cable
Russ has updated his Grounding Guide with information on how to ground equipment that is double insulated which tends to be common amongst streaming systems.
Double Insulated equipment – usually denoted by the symbol below– may not get the full benefit of RF grounding by connecting our grounding wires to the casework in the conventional way using our chassis tags or Chassis Ground Banana Adaptors… with double insulated equipment, you may get further benefits by grounding the components with these specific ground cables. If your component uses an external power supply with a barrel, jack style plug then this is also double insulated.

Available made with Kimber’s woven cable, the 3.5mm mono Jack Technical Ground Tri-braid cable should be fitted to an empty minijack socket on the double insulated equipment, such as a amplifier, Streamer, Blu-ray player or TV in place of connecting to the casework. The other end connects either to the RF Router or to another component that you've chosen as the hub.
Using the 3.5mm mono jack Technical Ground Tri-braid cable with standard (non double-insulated) equipment.
You may get further benefits by using the 3.5mm mono jack Technical Ground Tri-braid cable on standard, earthed equipment. We say may, because the only way to find out if there are further benefits is to try it! Listening is your best bet – if it sounds better with the additional ground in place, it is better.
What can I connect to?
The ground of the 3.5mm mono jack Technical Ground Tri-braid cable is connected to the metal shield of the plug only. A great tip passed on by a customer who was struggling to ground his double insulated amplifier was to use the 'Trigger' socket. This socket can often be found on all sorts of components and is designed to allow the remote turning on and off of equipment but is rarely used.
