While looking at the $600 IEC cable thread http://www.groupdiy.com/index.php?topic=11352 I was wondering, what value caps do they use in the Furm@n power conditioners? I know it's just the box, switch, lights, etc. but I remember years ago when I opened one up the only thing I saw inside actually doing "filtering" were some caps. I guess they let RFI, etc. go to ground, and let the 60Hz AC through.
If this is so why not just put a cap on the IEC inside every piece of gear. I never really understood the "power conditioning" thing, and all but two pieces of gear I own (Behr1ng3r headphone amp, and a Lex1c0n reverb unit) are really quiet.
Maybe a cap inside the old headphone amp would clean up those low level noises in the phones.
