Boazu Grounding
I was curious if it was safe to lift the ground on a Boazu and operate it in that manner? The reason would be to potentially eliminate a ground loop in a multi-room system.

Hi John!
Do you currently have a Boazu and experience a ground loop (usually manifested as a hum in the speakers)?
The reason I’m asking is that if that’s the case, we need to look at the whole system to figure out what’s causing the hum. Boazu uses a floating signal ground and the mains ground is only used for high frequency decoupling and safety. Thus lifting the ground is unlikely to eliminate a hum problem.
