In Reply to: solid core DIY wraps posted by bartc on December 18, 2003 at 13:52:24:
Solid is just easier to wrap around whatever. Was/is used in preamp design when not using shielded input wire but one side is connected to ground!!! Commercial wrap sounds gimmicky to me perhaps using ferrite material like antennae core. But basically will have to work by shielding or RFI removal and we do have better ways to do so
than this w(C)rap. Try a 4.7 MFD VAC rated cap across transformers secondary terminal for easy cheap RFI removal...will work with everything!!.
