Key Technologies

Solid Conductors - Copper

Solid conductors prevent strand-interaction, a major source of dynamic distortion in cables.

6% Silver Metal

6% Silver-Plating is applied to AudioQuest’s Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors to improve Noise-Dissipation.

RF/ND Technology

RF/ND-Tech minimizes circuit misbehavior by cancelling induced RF noise.

Direction Controlled - Copper

All internal conductors are Direction-Controlled to reduce RF noise.

The AudioQuest ThunderBird GroundGoody is a dedicated ground wire built to cut radio-frequency interference and distortion out of a turntable's phono signal path, using AudioQuest's RF/ND-Tech technology to dissipate the RF noise that standard grounding often misses. It's built with solid 6% silver conductors — the same premium material used in AudioQuest's ThunderBird interconnect line — for a low-noise ground connection rather than the thin, generic wire typically bundled with a turntable. It ships as a stereo pair carrying both left and right channel grounding in a single blue-on-black nylon braided cable, terminated with male U-spade connectors on both ends for a secure, low-resistance connection to turntable and phono stage grounding posts. Because it can pair with nearly any existing analog interconnect, it's a practical upgrade path for building a genuinely low-distortion phono cable setup without replacing an already-good set of RCA interconnects. It's available in lengths from 0.6m up to 3m, making it a straightforward fix for anyone hearing hum or RF noise bleeding into their turntable's sound.
