Entreq Tellus grounding

They are connected to basically the ground of the component. In most cases the chassis is the ground of the component. They do not replace the electrical ground wire. It probably works as a clean ground reference for the signal.

The earth cables are intended to be connected to a spare input connection of the component concerned and thence to the ground box itself.
They can also be used very effectively between the negative speaker output terminals of an amp and two separate compartments of a Poseidon, or to two separate ground boxes, In my system that has been very effective. The Entreq website has guidance on that application.
The Olympus Tellus also has a dedicated post for the connection of an Entreq earth mains lead to a mains outlet which again is very effective.
As Genesis indicated they do not replace the earth of a component. They provide signal grounding not component grounding

As previously said, these boxes work and make a considerable difference and more so an improvement to the sound. It's difficult not to be a believer after hearing it.
Often it's just one hi-fi component per grounding box terminal.
If all the hi-fi components chassis's were connected together, that would be a real grounding system.
Here is an old review of Entreq that may have been flying under the radar:

In my post 2819 I reported buying a Musical Bliss 6 way power block with an earth connection to hook up to an Entreq ground box.
I was advised that it needed 5-600 hours burn and it has taken all of that and more, but finally last week it got there.
It really is very good indeed. My system now sounds considerably better. The veils to the sound that even an Entreq Olympus, Poseidon and Olympus 10 didn't completely remove have now gone to be replaced by the music in all its unimpeded clarity and richness, The best comparison that comes to mind is a major turntable, arm and cartridge upgrade which reveals so much more of the music.
The synergy with the Entreq cables and ground boxes is total. Complete synergy.
I can hear the words on vocals so much more clearly now and pianos and violins have a wonderfully transparent and organic character.
It's only a small company but this product along with their blocks to put on top of power and interconnect cables are incredibly effective

Thanks Simone
Yes I am very pleased with mine
Not sure where you are but but you can contact through info@sonicsynergy.co.uk

I will contact them !Entreq just announced a new Ground Box called Olympus Infinity.

New improved Olympus.
Olympus Infinity have the same new technology as we use in
our top selling Olympus 10. But since Olympus Infinity have 4 times more mass and 5 times more silver treated with the Infinity tech it give you a even more solid effect compared with OM 10.
Together with our Eartha Infinity cables you will find that your records/CD:s or steamed files have so much information and musicality you never heard before. This is our best groundbox so far.
We will start ship out Olympus Infinity in the end of Aug and will also have a special offer for you who already own a Olympus Mini.

A cautionary tale.
I mentioned earlier having to wait ages for my Musical Bliss power block to burn in and waiting for the sound to improve which it duly did
I was so pleased when it finally came on song that for a few days I didn't notice that a cable had come adrift. The Apollo earth cable from my Poseidon to the Vitus amp.
What a difference once reconnected and settled in!
The Entreq earthing really does make a difference as I was reminded in no uncertain way.

I am currently home auditioning the CH Precision D1 CD/SACD Player. The D1 is configured for dual mono output as can be seen from the pic. What would be the best way to connect my Entreq Olympus Minimus to it? I only have a single Eartha Apollo Infinity RCA. My thoughts are to connect to the unused digital output RCA.
Hi shapo
No personal experience but I was with Entreq's UK distributor a couple of months ago when he got a call from one of his dealers enthusing over the Prime USB cable and saying that it was far better than other more expensive competitors that he had used.

I use the RCA digital input for my Apollo earth on my DCS Scarlatti transport and dual aes so what you propose should be fine for the CH Precision.
Let us know how it goes.
