Rilbr, I also have and still have many Acoustic Revive units. I had an AR RTP-6 when I bought my PowerCell 10SE. When it arrived I merely moved all six powercords from the RTP-6 and plugged them into the PowerCell. I should say that the RTP-6 had replaced my much more expensive IsoClean isolation transformer system. What I still remember was that the PowerCell was more open, dynamic, and had strikingly better bass. I should also say that the power cords were a mix of Isoclean and Cerious Technology and not SR.
I have never tried the Alan Maher unit.
My experience with AR quartz has been very confusing. I remember putting a QR-8 in the center of the wall behind my speakers and hearing it as I pressed it on the wall! All of this effect from a pencil eraser size piece of quartz. I had many other experiences were these pieces work quite well, but I have also had really bad experiences, such as putting one on a cd player drawer and totally killing all dynamics in the music and another putting one on my Murata Supertweeters with the same result. And I have had instances were these and the bigger AR quartz units did nothing, such as on the back of or on top some components.
All of this lead me to doing an interview with the Acoustic Revive owners which was to be published on Dagogo but has never appeared. I explored how many of their pieces came about and what the theory behind them was, if any. I don't think any of the inventors you enumerated were the originators of the use of quartz, not of the SR ARTs or MIGs.
I have not tried the Universal Interconnect Cells but Ted urged me to try the Universal Speaker Cells. As he said, once you hear them you will never stand any speaker wires without them. I would reverse your intended ordering.
