When you touch the chassis of your audio device, does the hum / sizzle increase? If this is the case, it is probably due to a lack of grounding, which protects your system from interference. Current electrical standards require certain precautions to be taken that are not necessarily in line with the concept of audio performance. This can result from noise or blast due to interference.

With this in mind, iFi Audio decided to launch GroundHog+, which allows you to make an effective grounding that will greatly reduce interference from your audio system. The product is also delivered with several accessories to make it compatible with all types of power supplies on the market:

• RCA CAble : For audio systems with an unused RCA connector.
• USB Converter : For audio systems with computer.
• Spade converter : For power supplies with DC connector.
• Y 3.5mm converter : For mobile devices with an unused 3.5mm connector.
• Banana / RCA (Male cable) : For grounding with the iPurifier AC.

When to use GroundHog+ ?

To find out if GroundHog+ could help make your audio system more efficient, it's easy. Just follow the advice in the diagram below. If there is no or insufficient mass, it is recommended to turn to GroundHog+. In case of a ground loop, it is preferable to integrate the iFi Audio iDefender 3.0> into your system.
