What is the purpose of the clip that comes out of the IEC/RCA connector?
The clip is connected to the outer shielding of the cable. It gives the option of floating or grounding the outermost shielding. All of our cables feature multiple shielding in the design. In our extensive listening tests, the ability to float or ground the outer shield affects the sound dramatically. We give you, the listener, the option of fine tuning the sound to best suit your system.
