“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

It’s a bit garbled but the description of that eBay item does indeed mention a IEC mains lead. I was thinking of the Entreque boxes, those sold by certain high-end audio dealerships - they definately do not connect to the mains (except indirectly via shared signal and mains ground connections).

Well, I'm happy to use and believe that I hear distinct differences and improvements in sound quality from interconnect and mains cables and am happy to spend my money on them, even though there are no objective tests that I know of or solidly grounded (sorry!) scientific reasons why they should work in this way.
I'm happy to try grounding boxes with the same attitude and I am looking forward to receiving my one and having a go!

Looking forward to your findings Jandl. I've heard the difference a Entreq Poseidon makes, that's why there is one in the system I am listening to at present, oh and it replaced a Silver Tellus.

Anyone ever took one of these apart to see what is inside?
You can even buy an 'upgraded' tubular nut for the Entreq grounding boxes, with even extra claimed performance:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ground-Bo...dEPh:rk:2:pf:0
' Simply replace the wooden clamp on your entreq box with this and you will hear an improvement in soundstage, detail and placement around vocals and instruments, bass is tighter and the overall effect is a far more engaging sound.'
Ha.
If these make an audible difference, then it can only mean that some people *prefer* a higher noise floor. This is interesting in itself as it isn’t the first time I have heard people preferring higher distortion. I don’t like how these are called grounding boxes though. They are indeed aerials. No current will magically flow into the box and get absorbed.
