AN Wonderland/JM 100w layout

That means running the ground up to the furthest point away from the chassis which is right at the send/receive jacks. Attaching my layout as another way of looking at this.

The reason to separate the grounds instead of one single ground point for all of your filter caps is to reduce ground loops by isolating sections of the preamp which would correspond to the preamp filter caps too. Sometimes this makes a difference, other times it does not. I tend to follow best practices that I've learned here from Dumble & the clones. I know some folks will revise layouts and ground schemes until the very end of the battle.

Hi Ryan,

Thanks for the answer, I'm checking your thread on the amp, nice information over there!. I'll replicate the specified ground points.

Cheers mate.
