Hello to all those seasoned techies and newbies (such as me) lets make this the grounding thread that will end the confusion and the annoyance of this topic by making this a very simple straight to the point with as many visual references that can be used.
Mainly I think that problem with the reason why so many dont get it at first is because many of us im sure are "visual" learners so an actual "real world" visual example would dissolve much of the confusion. To begin, I'll post some basic FAQs that really need to be clarified (will edit along the way)
Should Mains Ground be Isolated or connected at the same junction "starground" point with the other grounds???
Now please I'll even pay money for someone that can show a very basic example/photo of what "chassis ground" should be "wired as"
Is balanced AC grounds really something that should always be followed??? I mean is it really worth it if the builder is willing to do the wiring??? If so, a visual representation would be great.
Placing .01uf cap in parallel with a 100 ohm resistor should be wired at the star ground point??? or at each XLR input???
Now for the meat and potatoes....
Chassis ground

Earth ground/ Safety ground
**V**
Signal Ground
More to follow....
