Idea to reduce RFI

I live 1 block from the main mobile communication tower. That my speakers has pickup some radio channel though its only audible with my ear next to the speaker.

i am looking for any idea to reduce this kind of RFI. how bout an ferrite core? ERS paper? shield interconnect? shield power cable? which is most effective way as read somewhere in the forum that shield PC for amp causes dead sound?

line conditioner or iso transformer help with RFI or they only good to clean up power?

i have all ungrounded cdp , pre and amp. would shielding PC help with floating ground units to reduce RFI?

my system:
cdp cyrus 8x with psr (no ground from unit)
pre amc cvt 1030 (no ground from unit)
amp amc cvt 2100 (no ground from unit)
cd buffer yaqin 6j1

thanks in advance

Tigerclose, mind share how the active shield is conducted? how you actually connect the 0.22uF cap? any schematic or wiring diagram? thx in adv

Milen,it is very simple.Just connect one end of the drain wire and the capacitor to the anode.Then the other drain wire from the fellow interconnect and another capacitor is connected to the cathode of a 9V DC battery.I use a spare pair of Audio note copper paper in oil 0.22uf capacitor (best sounding so far) ,so one end of the capacitor is connected and the other end is left unconnected.Also I discovered that ferrit core around ONE proximal and BOTH the distal terminal of the speaker cable definitely help to improve the sound as well.Happy tweaking!
