"I've got to agree. This looks to be more jewelry than anything else."

Why not buy one, try it out and THEN report back to us if the product has merit or is just audio jewelry :-)

While Tweek does have valid observations, there R attributes of the electrical delivery system as we know it that raise questions. I am
NOT discounting the RF absorbtion into the house wiring, what I am trying to suggest is that the AC cap is doing more to damp parasitic resonances in the AC line which are induced into the house wiring inside the VERY resonant walls....especially if they are constructed of plasterboard.

A good example is high end outlets. On the surface, it is just an outlet that is really an interface between the house wiring and products that utilize electricity to function. It is well known that that quality of the outlet can have a very profound sonic effect on ones system and it is NOT the fact that it can pass electricity via better materials BUT the fact that it passes electricity without inducing colorations/distorion/resonances into the AC waveform.

JMHO of course,
