Ferrite cores on cables


Hi , 

 I have seen a few sets of speaker cables that use ferrite cores on both ends . I do use these on my power cords with good results . Have any of you tried these on your speaker cables ? IF so what results if any ? Thanks in advance . 

Happy listening ,

I have used them very successfully on my PC which supplies my streaming on my system and they have got rid of an incredible amount of noise in my system and for me at least it's all for the better.

Use 2 1.5V AAA batteries with the ‘+’ pole pointing to the speaker. Much better than ferrites

We should be more specific about where ferrite cores work and where they do not.

IMO they do not work on analog signal cables. They also do not work on power cables that are supplying power to a component with a linear/transformer based power supply. The ferrite does removes noise, but also seems to slow down the transient of the power feed and creates a weird magnetic effect that gets worse the longer the ferrite is on the cable.

But I have heard them improve a switch mode power supply, both on the input of the SMPS and the output of a SMPS.
