Guide Book
EarthMan6 / EarthMan Set Audiophile Ground Box
Congratulations and thank you for choosing the T-Adler EarthMan !
Please take the time to go through this guidebook which we have divided into different sections to provide some important points.
EarthMan
The T-Adler EarthMan is a class leading grounding box because of its sophisticated frequency-optimized filter technology which creates static equilibrium.
​
FUNCTIONS
The EarthMan works like an intravenous injection to strengthen your sound stage foundation, keeping the sound background more dark and having the lowest noise in the listening environment.
​
HOW TO USE IT
Before connection, please study this guidebook and write down all the important points because it is a new technology ground box. Please handle it as other similar ground boxes.
​
PLACEMENT
The EarthMan must be placed on a horizontal place in clean and dry environment. You can arrange the rack together with other equipment at the same level. Please make sure it is minimum 10cm away from other audio equipment.
Don't expose the device to direct sunlight.
​
1 to 1
One terminal of the ground box can only work with one audio device in a system.
​
NEGATIVE OUTPUT
The ground box terminal which connects to the audio system must be the output of the device.
​
POSTIVE OUTPUT
Pleased be sure that no positive output connected. It will create the loop of the connection which may destroy your audio system.
​
THE TERMINALS
The EarthMan6 terminals cannot be connected to other EarthMan6 terminals of the same unit.
​
WATERPROOF
The EarthMan is not a waterproof device.
​
GROUND CABLE
The ground cable is not the same like other types of cables. It is just to connect to the ground of your device terminal. T-Adler is using 3 conductors to form the ground skin which will decrease the interference on the conductor skin.
For the best performance, we highly recommend to use our T-Adler ground cables.
​
CIRCUITRY
The EarthMan has no internal circuitry, but we have designed a very strong flow channel to pull the dirty signals from the audio devices to our static charge incinerator.
​
SURFACE PLATING
Each device is plated individually, a very little color difference may occur.
​
EarthMan CONNECTIONS

GROUND CABLE REPLACEMENT
Please connect all the ground cables with crossing, so the back area terminal will connect to the equipment at the back side and vice versa.
​
HANDLE WITH CARE
No need to use any solvent to clean the EarthMan. The only way is to use fine fibers material to wipe lightly on the surface.
The plastic sheet on the top surface could be kept without any performance effects as this sheet which is for protection only.
