Copper Sleeve over IEC

There has been several threads on AA about putting a 1 1/2" copper union (coupler) over the IEC on the CD Player, Preamp, Amp.

Well I tried it...

Anyone else give it a try?

More articulate bass, more precise imaging and deeper soundstage. Gotta get one for my HT/secondary system now. Thanks for the great suggestion!

Have you tried using a homemade ground wire as seen in the video? It looks as if he used a regular 3-pin plug, but removed the positive and neutral pins leaving only the ground pin; then he simply screwed the other end (bare wire) to the back of the CD player. Additionally, he noted that you should load each CD twice before playback. Anyone try all three of these tweaks in combination as seen on the video?
