Be careful

You're talking AC current here and it can kill you or burn down your house! Make sure you have a better idea of what you're doing before you tackle such projects. If, as you say, you have no DIY skills and aren't sure what's what with your wall warts, then slow down and learn a bit about electrical devices before you play with them.

It should be very easy to wire a Hammond choke into a plug and cable in and of itself. If I've understood correctly, simply doing that SAFELY and pluging it into your AC somewhere in or near your audio equipment should give you notable improvement. But even that should be done with at least some knowledge of how to wire up a device and house it so that it's safe.

So go back to square one and read more and be more confident before you proceed. Or have a more knowledgeable friend walk you through a couple of projects first.

Many proejcts are relatively simple, once you know basic wiring and safety. It's worth your while to start slowly and learn from good example and success, rather than from shorting something you value out, including your body!!!!
