Or would I not use the grounding wire at all? The site you linked says, "User can choose to decide his own, but we recommend to connect the earth wire to ground. Do not connect OPAs earth wire to AC power socket ground." |

I remember there was discussion over this and most people either didn't bother with it or just attached it to analog ground because it was recommended by Kingwa, the designer Either way, the general concensus is that OPA-Earth provided better SQ then the OPA-Sun on the basis that OPA-Sun tended to be overly bright and unatural. I have only tested OPA-Sun Version 1 for this.. so maybe they fixed it a bit with Ver. 2. OPA-Moon is said to produce a more "tubey" sound. I have yet to try this one but I know a few people that enjoy the sound. OPA-Earth sits in my Zero atm, probably the most neutral of the three, which is fine for me as I have a Darkvoice Tube amp feeding AKG K701s |
