How many Auricaps to put in my components?

Tweakers' Asylum

Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ.

I installed one Auricap .47 uF 600V Capacitor across the hot / neutral on the inside of the component IEC for the following components:
- Monster HTS3500 power center
- Rotel 5X200 WPC power amplifier
- Rotel preprocessor
- Panasonic DVD player
Some people mention to install two. Is this only if you apply them at the AC outlet? Do I need two for the higher current components? Do the low current devices preprocessor and DVD player benefit from having an extra Auricap?
What is the relative benefit of one versus two Auricaps? Do you get 90% of the way there with only one Auricap?
Thanks in advance.
