Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ.

RE: I have tried all of the products you listed in the past...

Since this tweak absorbs HF noise on the AC wiring line that is doing something different than the plug-in filters you have, I suggest you invest in a .01 gram scale. They are about $10 on Amazon. For I soon (or eventually after I finish fully testing) will be posting about a compound that filters microwave frequencies that can be used with this tweak and other applications with fantastic further performance gains.

Yes you can start with on the hot leg (vertical) 1g and the ground leg (horizontal) .5g. This is total Rochelle salt and bag weight. Which equates to about .5 gram hot leg and .2 gram ground leg. I highly recommend that you tune at each junction install by ear. Tuning is accomplished by adjusting the amount of the Rochelle salt used at each leg, depending on the effect you want. Just experiment and you will understand. At any junction, you can (and should) tune system tonal balance and presentation body weight. For every 1-3 junction installs you will hear your system become more resolving. Key is make sure after each and every install you do not lose resolution. I have posted here and on the Head-Fi thread on how to do this.

What is extremely cool about this project is that you learn that your entire home's wiring acts like an antenna. Picking up and accumulating airborne and electronic noise generated by your home's electronics. Even a junction at the other end of your home, on a different circuit from your audio system treated can be heard. Must be the noise on that circuit is transferred at the main panel.

This project is extremely inexpensive, yields very high performance gains and is easy to do.
