Blue Circle BC-86 III


Just wondering for those who bought these "noise killers" what your overall impression with these units?I recently hearing a very light grunge from my power lines,barely noticeable but still bothers me.Would the Blue Circle noise pillows filter out the dirt?...

I recently purchase one and the improvements is oblvious if you have dirty lines,if you have clean lines I doubt you will hear any results,its not a dramatic impact but subtle "elimination" of surface top riding RFI.I had a slight problem with a low noise hum during the day,its still there but I noticed a more rounded presentation,cymbals has slightly more extension.I plug my right into my conditioner which seems to offer the most improvement,I tried a downstream recepticle and the improvements barely was noticable.Would two help?..probably not if you have dedicated treated lines,but if you need a device that will strip another film of dirt from the house lines I recommend this product,considering tweaks are a hit and miss in the audio world I condsider the Blue Circle BC 86 III as bargain.IMHO any improvement of a home audio setup starts at the source,like they say " garbage in,garbage out".
Im waiting for my Hubble(porter port) recepticle to come in,its surprising that I heard a difference on my friends system when he installed a pair.He's actually waiting for my comments regarding the Blue Circle before he buys one.Like I indicated eariler some listeners wont notice any significant improvements that a BC86 III may provide,BUT on my system there was a improvement that justified this purchase so much so I might consider additional one.Any potential buyers audition it before buying,try different placements of this unit,it has a approximate coverage of about 20 feet..my unit works best when its close to the source,others I heard found improvements pluggin it in 20 feet away,I guess it depends on the selective line your system is cycled.
