It's placed directly at a grounding point within a component or circuit, and can provide a further improvement even in systems already using a Ground Block. GCTs can also be applied to or near a component's fuse holder, including at the IEC inlet, to the same effect. One GCT per component is generally recommended. As an authorized Synergistic Research dealer in Toronto, Canada, Vinyl Sound can help you identify the best placement points in your specific components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmall, adhesive tuning device applied directly at a component's grounding point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCan be used alongside Active or Passive Ground Blocks for a further effect\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlso effective when applied to or near a fuse holder, including at the IEC inlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 unit per component recommended\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAvailable individually or as a pack of 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-day money-back guarantee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePlacement Points\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFuses\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIEC grounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChassis grounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePCB ground traces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStar grounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGround posts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eGCT FAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere do I place a GCT?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nCommon placement points include fuses, IEC grounds, chassis grounds, PCB ground traces, star grounds, and ground posts — wherever a grounding point exists in the component.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many GCTs do I need per component?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSynergistic Research recommends one GCT per component.
