Let’s just say I’ll be more careful now, and “ground” myself before touching my audio equipment.
I can see you walking around with a hat that has an antenna that goes to the ceiling to keep you grounded everywhere you go, LoLoL!
Copying here.
(From another thread – No, I don’t have sundaras, no, I did not kill poor, innocent headphones. )
do you wear a lot of 100% cotton? or thermals? or “breathable” sports wears? i find all of those generate a lot of static. also do you wear slippers/shoes in the house? the rubber soles will help you to retain more static energy.
multiple layers of clothing will also generate more static.
Personally… I find all this shocking!!
I remember a thing awhile back like years ago in an old science class I did ages ago where we held this electric ball and put ur finger near a running tap and the water would move. And it moved slightly when some did it, but when I did it the water nearly moved 90 degrees haha. So i know some people defo conduct alot more than others.
Welcome to my life. RIP my Schiit products :’(
Cloth chair on carpet with a desk covered by a mouse pad, dry weather, and no unpainted metal nearby. I wonder why I have a problem lol
well…they were Schiit…
perhaps we can market ankle grounding rods? a bendy piece of wire connected to a ring you secure on your ankle.
/me starts reading reports of ground lightning events killing hundreds at a time…
Yea man. The happiest day in the last month has been getting my Geshelli stuff and not having the problem at all anymore
Monolith LP also doesn’t have the issue…grounding problems with the Schiit/JDS cases maybe?
When I have to count “properly grounded electronic equipment” and “not static sensitive” as a plus >.>
You have to say this one right and sound just like Doc Brown.
