>> Sorry, but I am convinced there is no benefit to this tweak, other than perhaps psychological ones. <<

Not to dismiss the fact that psychological benefits are very real indeed, please allow me to add the following:

Before I had a fully balanced system I used ferrite quite a bit; I found it to greatly reduce RFI, especially with phono. Since that time I've also done A/B test with and without ferrite, and like you never heard a difference. Before anyone asks, I have small and large RS ferrite, AQ ferrite clamps, and industrial ferrite chokes of varied sizes...and yes, the wire was wrapped around the chokes during auditioning.

Best Wishes,
Felix
