Last week, an Electrophysiology Lab I visited did a before and after test using an NR power cord to replace a stock power cord on only one component. The results were profound, proving the importance of filtering at the component.

Got it, thanks, Grant. That was very helpful information.

Very interesting info on the Electrophysiology lab visit.

Cheers,
Stephen
