Sounds better to me! Rid my system of radio station gremlins and just sounded better. Surprisingly, the turntable sounded better too.
Your gear needs to be third wire grounded or double insulated. Old metal chassis electronics that take one AC prong to be ground would be very exciting!
I can see where wiring a room full of balanced AC wall outlets could raise unexpected problems but a dedicated quad or whatever for the stereo should be very reasonably safe. Don't quite get the GFCI requirement. Is a 60 V ground fault worse than a 120 v ground fault? It's probably to act as a last ditch safety measure if the other limitations are not observed.
The toroid solution will allow a wider band of noise through so you probably would get better performance from a standard E style core.
