Default Mains filters

Just a quick straw poll...

What are people's opinions of mains filters, upgraded power cables etc?

Have been doing some investigation and there may actually be something
in this. Not talking Russ Andrews style £250 mains cables here, more
like sticking a plug with a filter onto a standard IEC lead, and
possibly using one of those Masterplug RFI filtered 4-way blocks.

Has anyone done any serious experimentation on this? I did hear a quite
convincing demonstration at the Sound & Vision show in Bristol a few
years ago, but the mains there is probably a lot dirtier than your
typical home installation.

What myself and a few others have figured out is that the level of RFI
introduced onto your ring main by something like the switching PSU in a
typical PC is quite high.

Opinions, people?
