...is to place piezoelectric crystals on or near your speakers. Rough cut topaz is cheap and works well. The effects of quartz vary greatly from one stone to another, so I usually stick with topaz. Aqua aura works well, but it costs more than topaz. All of these crystals convert elecromagnetic waves into kinetic energy (they vibrate) and clean up the sound. The typical result is a larger soundstage and better detail.
Crystals work in all sorts of places: here is a picture of some that I've placed in my preamp:
Another way too absorb RFI is to use ERS cloth or Z-Sleeves near the cable inlets. I don't think that either product is made any more, and their effects aren't as strong as the effect of crystals, but I use Z sleeves on my speakers and they have some effect, even though it is a small one. One problem with Z-sleeves and ERS cloth is that they can deaden the sound if over-used.
