Re: RFI filters

You ought to investigate those EMI/RFI filters. Corcom is one of the largest manufacturers (although I understand they've been taken over by some other company) but they make a variety of filters with different amperage ratings and different filter characterists.

In general, the higher the amperage rating, the worse the EMI/RFI suppression. I use the ER series, which has two pi sections, and a claimed 90 dB suppression, IIRC, but I don't use anything larger than a 6 amp rating ( preferring the 3 amp version if possible) and I series them for even further suppression. Those IEC inlet filters do work, but are designed for minimal EMI/RFI suppression.
