Balanced mains power for lower noise floor, more detailed and natural sounding audio and A/V quality. Gas Tube Protection Gas discharge tube technology is used to satisfy the latest safety requirements for Surge protectors. I think to get maximum benefit you need one strip per piece of equipment / plug - time you do that - might as well buy somehting decent like an Isotek Aquarius or better and save space Basically it is the USB noise, however I am very puzzle as I use XLR to XLR from my Topping EX5 to Genelec 8010a. The fact that this didn't happen in my iFi nano iDSD perhaps is due to nano iDSD relies on the USB power in addition to the data transfer, for some reason, there was not any issue with the USB ground loop. Whereas in Topping EX5, it uses external power, USB power is not being used then creating such ground loop problem? Mains Conditioners help reduce Radio Frequency Interference and so help to enhance the sound and/or picture quality by reducing interference. The Tacima CS947 uses sophisticated filtering that uses high frequency capacitors and a single choke to suppress both symmetrical and asymmetrical mains interference. In addition to this, the mains cable is also thoroughly screened to help eliminate the effects of radiated noise interference.

TACIMA CS947 Mains Conditioner 6-Socket Extension Lead - Currys

Does everything as advertised. Be prepared for a 2 meter length of cable that can’t be altered. I like to keep my cables tidy but now have a large loop of spare cable behind the unit. I feel a choice of cable lengths would be a real plus. Does everything as advertised. Be prepared for a 2 meter length of cable that can’t be altered.

Take all cues out of the situation, (Blind Test) then no matter what your persuasion is, you will not hear any difference. In addition I plug the Gigaset DECT phones into the same Tacima mains conditioner the Router / Modem is using. The reason for this is a mains spike could enter the DECT phone via it's transformer, travel down the phone line, pass the ADSL/VDSL filter, and still enter the router via this route. Also, I would assume this is more important for the Modem, not the Router, so if you have separate units, bear that in mind. Just an update on the noise issues that occasionally happen, I suspect it is the same as: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...ise-while-moving-mouse-usb-ground-loop.10599/

As good an upgrade to your system as £45 can buy

Mains Conditioners aid in the reduction of mains borne radio frequency interference and so helps to enhance your sound and picture quality also absorbing mains surges and spikes in the process which otherwise can cause permanent damage to valuable equipment. The first picture is the speed of a TP-Link ethernet of power adapter just plugged into mains, you can see 409Mbps. I used to use all C929 tacimas - now use none as there are much better products out there. I liked them a lot for a good while, clear difference to me Our filters are specifically designed to combat both “Asymmetrical” as well as “Symmetrical” interference, both being effectively suppressed by the introduction of High Frequency Capacitors and a single Choke In addition we have also incorporated an Earth Line Choke to stop interference through the mains earth line, finally we use a Screened Mains Cable to eliminate the effects of radiated noise interference.

So let me understand: are you connecting from PC to EX5 using an HDMI cable through an audio purifier?Independent customer view's are, for me anyway, more preferable than manufacturer claim's as they provide at least the "common touch" bought and tried by unconnected person's, not everyone can work for Tacima!!
