That's what "power conditioners" are for. I have seen the difference
on a 'scope before and after something filters out the noise on an AC
line, but I would not want to argue that there's an audible
difference to the sound of amplifiers using filtered AC based on my
own subjective listening.
Placebo effect, anyone? If it cost all that money, it must do
*something*, mustn't it?
