I'm sorry, but I don't recall the choke tweak on that thread. Where did you read this?
Thanks.

bartc I don't remember exactly what page is was on, but I would guess that on pages 4-6 of the posting. The gentleman stated that he had used what I thought were torrodial chokes and that they bested the DIY ones that were being discussed. I decided to use the ones that I chose only because they seemed easier to work with.

On page 8 of that DIYaudio.com thread on 'groundside electrons'. He doesn't specify anything other than "common mode chokes" with lots of wire.
You got stuff off the shelf at RS, huh? OK, I might try that one. I'm assuning you did the same thing: make a single lead from the two ends and put that onto the negative post of your speakers, right?
bartc, yes I simply crimped the two ends of the choke wires onto a spade connector. BTW, I later made another set on attached them to positive speaker terminals and got slightly more improvement. Maybe a little wider sound stage, definitely more pronounced and tighter bass response, slightly better transparancy, and more gain at the same setting.

Not better, not worse, on either pole. Too bad....
