accusing me of believing in a voodoo explanation for the tweak! As the photos show, I actually own some Power wrap myself, and can duplicate its effect. I actually modify the High wire approach and use thun mumetal strips wrapped around a cord covered with copper tape to unify the electrical and magnetic induction. I then ground the receiving end at the component it is connected to. This works extremely well although it makes for a bit more hum bug as you have another cable end floating around.This EMI induction even works for RF as I have used similar approaches using unconnected wire to shield sensitive components, phono sections in particular ( I live in an extremely high RF area). The unconnected wire acts as an antenna and thus can receive RF, and thus "wick" away unwanted RF. Of course such an explanation is disputed by Geoff who claims I have RF on the mind.....LOL!
In the case of Geoff, he forgets that one of the principle tenets of Feng Shui is to orient the sleeping body North-South. Why? To align the body with the Earth's magnetic field as the Chinese were the first to discover the compass. This is a far cry from the mysticism he is claiming, although some of Feng Shui is superstition (front doors should not be in direct line with the rear door because good luck will take the easy way out). The Chinese philosophies David Boehm was referring to in his writings were more of the Shang period Oracle Bones NOT Feng Shui.
I believe that wires and such make a noticeable difference, too, but I also believe an understanding of the nature of the effects is at hand.
YMMV, as is obvious
