Signal and Chassis grounding Cables

Power ground, also known as protective earth (PE) or safety ground, is essential to all audio electronics. It provides a safe pathway to discharge excess electrical potential, preventing electric shocks in the event of a fault. In contrast, audiophiles and less experienced dealers often overlook or underestimate another grounding type, signal ground.

Analog and digital music signals fluctuate around a zero reference point as they move from positive to negative values. Establishing a system-wide identical zero-value point using a signal ground unlocks your equipment's inherent potential.

Enklein has two decades of experience in designing and manufacturing grounding cables. The engineering emphasizes creating a common signal and chassis grounds across all audio and video electronics, regardless of brand or type. By establishing this common ground, Enklein cables ensure continuity in the signal path, reduce interference, and enhance the overall immersive audio and video experience.

We usually understand the basics of electrical safety, as seen with GFCI outlets in bathrooms, which require a ground connection to prevent electric shocks.

Lydia goes beyond that, creating a path of least resistance using a eutectic copper core and various connector types, including IEC, 5/15p, RCA, XLR, Spade, and banana.

The ION features a eutectic silver core, equipped with rhodium-plated connectors, and builds on the foundational design of the Lydia. With improved 14-gauge conductors and added electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, the ION is designed to ground high-power amplifiers, speakers and the most delicate phono stages.

Our grounding cables for reference systems are constructed using 12-gauge silver lattice, integrated with an inline directional RJ-420 noise dissipation system. This configuration protects against eddy currents and potential interference from inadequately designed or defective equipment. Adopting XerXes grounding cables audibly reduces the noise floor, facilitating a pronounced three-dimensional silence between instruments in multi-microphone recordings. This improvement significantly enhances the immersive quality of the auditory experience.
