Wrapping power cords and interconnects with copper foil.

Ok..not sure other people have done what I tried recently but I’ve found a night and day difference in sound quality after I wrapped my tube power amp power cord (rogue Zeus) and my cheap audio quest interconnect cables with copper foil. I even wrapped by phono cable coming out of my turntable to phono pre-amp. The detail retrieval and pin drop silence after doing this has made by jaw drop. Cost was $40 worth of foil wrap. What do you audiophiles think? Have I changed the sound signature in a negative way somehow?

I did in the past and it worked, but my best practise is to bind power cables along the rack (to the left or to the right, depending by the positions of power and interconnect sockets) in order to keep them as far as possible from interconnect cables (which are always short enough to make a simple curve for keeping them far enough from the rack or other devices).
