In Reply to: Are ferrite rings bad for power cords? posted by robertopisa on April 19, 2007 at 21:12:50:
I experimented with those for a couple of years and ended up with the most musical and natural sound without them on my equipment and just finding the right power cord for each component.One rather interesting note. I had a scope at home and could see some noise from different equipment running in the house. Things like the refrigerator, dehumidifier, and dimmer switches were the most noticeable. I put ferrite cores on the power cords to those appliances after doing this test. I haven't brought the scope home from work to compare the effect
but my system has never sounded better. The cores I used were the ones that came with my Samsung plasma TV and were supposed to go on the audio input cables. My audio only goes through the stereo so they were available for use.
I am afraid to change anything in the system as it's at a level previously unheard of but I do plan on trying some Noise Harvesters.
