Hi Don. I have a feeling you are right. In many years of large
recording sessions, with hundreds of cables and interconnects
I have never seen a mains filter unit in use.

When I get the literature about the mains filter perhaps we can
discuss this further. Glenn's post is IMO and interesting one.
If there is a ghost to be laid to rest here, thsis is a good time
and a good place to do it.

The problem is that this is a ghost that has been laid now many times,
and every so often somebody comes along and insists on digging it up
again, usually with some piece of pseudo science to back it up, as
Glenn has. You are then torn - do you explain the engineering and
science to somebody who is clearly not equipped to understand it, or
simply tell them not to be stupid? Unfortunately, with Glenn the first
option has been shown not to work.
