Opinions on A/C Noise Meter EMI Testers

Even after putting in a power conditioner, a customer had noise issues detectable with the meter which was helpful in finding the primary source of the noise--stuff was unplugged around the house until the noise source was found (a string of LED lights in a bedroom on a completely different circuit from the stereo).

@larryi - It is exactly this sort of issue why I don’t put a lot of faith in dedicated circuits or heavy duty wiring for noise reduction. I use Furmans which have filtration down to around 3kHz. Not perfect but a lot better than pure EMI/RFI filters. I wouldn’t mind having a dedicated circuit for the sake of power stability but my regulator does a very good job.

Can anyone advise a EMI tester brand/price they bought and like?

Sounds like a worthwhile device.

Another thought-With all the information on how to bring good power

to your system it is bothersome to learn of Larry's LED on separate line issue.

What's a person to do???

Thanks to you all for the experience sharing!

I purchase a used AM transistor radio from the 1970's.

Turn it on, tune it in between stations and hold it close to whatever you are worried about as a potential source of problems.

The bigger the problem, the more static you hear.

Cost me $10, plus gas. I might have broke even of the purchase.

@tony1954 Genius. 

Yeah but those old radios are hard to find now!
