There is an enormous amount of garbage on ac lines, with some of it deliberately put there, some by the power companies. There are many devices intended to remove this garbage and some to remove the dc. I have tried over forty of these but have found most do more harm to your music than good. If you install it and let it break in and listen and after a time remove it and you sound improves, sell it. I have found only the Synergistic Research PowerCell stands out in greatly improving your sound.
