I got the idea from the Golden Sound acoustic discs, which are mainly marketed for room acoustic control, and while a patent/trademark search turned up nothing on the GS discs, myself and another AA inmate felt they could be improved upon as I found they were very effective at mitigating micro vibrations from IC's, speaker cables, power cords, AC receptacles/plugs, CD drives/motors, capacitors, PCB's, transformers ETC.

We developed them from what started out as stacks of coins, both American and Japanese, to trying different materials from wood to plastic. They are still in the development stage at this point but the material(s) we are currently using have proven VERY effective. We may develop different models down the line as we fine tune them for different applications.

The current issue we are facing is the manufacturer that was stamping out the discs for us in his spare time decided it was not worth his time so we are currently looking for a replacement.

I heard that GFCI's can be noisy but I don't use them in either of my systems so I don't have 1st hand experience with them. Maybe someone else can chime in about this...
