As long as connections are made only within the A-100 only the tips would be
necessary as the GND of all A-100 modules is made internally via the
bus/power supply. But if you want to connect a module to a device outside
the A-100 (e.g. filter output to an external mixer, or filter input from an
external audio source) the GND connection is required.
