How important is EMI and RFI rejection?

Also thank you danmyers for your insights....

You're welcome, Wavetrader. Please note that I mentioned grounding in my initial response. IMO, (no interest or ties to Tripoint) you'll be paying them to implement my low cost suggestions in a beautiful box with margins that boggle the mind. There is no magic here, EMI/RFI are well understood electronic phenomena that are usually simple and inexpensive to fix.

Enjoy,

Dan

A lower cost alternative to the Troy that could work:

Comparing ground zero toy to tripoint is like comparing a zip-lock bag to a vacumm sealing system.

I compared the Ground Zero model#501 to the Tripoint Apollo. The ground zero effect is subtle at best, better focus with more stable images in the soundfield, but didn't compare with Tripoints expansive soundstage and added body to the music. Tripoint was much more quiet and resolving. The much pricier Tripoint is what I call grounding on steroids and worth the price of admission.
