    Even non-reconditioned Carver amps (M1.5t, M-500t, M4.0t and the like) are going for crazy money. I just saw one go for close to $800! The market for vintage gear is strong.....which is weird because new or slightly used stuff sits on the chopping block for a while, even with severe discounts.

    How about "free" records??!! The vinyl is free but the shipping is about $12 each...still not a bad deal for new records and the selection is actually half decent:

    I don't think the few hidden treasures that might be in there is worth the Easter egg hunt. I see a huge headache for someone and I'm glad it's not me.

    ^^^^^As an owner of 5 of those devices that's not a good price ($75 new) on something that doesn't work as advertised despite Mcgowan's claims otherwise. The blue blinky lights look cool though.

    When @verb had his noise detector thingy (technical term), he was sharing with members, I tested my lines and the noise harvester's did make an improvement. Especially if you located them near certain appliances and lighting that was the source. Took some fiddling around to get the best configuration. Did I hear an actual improvement? I don't remember but I still have them in my system.

    Yes I guess you could say they do occasionally work in some situations. My emi meter shows it sometimes lowers noise by about 25 points on the scale and other times nothing. Adding several more I could get the number up to about 30 points lowered sometimes. Those numbers though are meaningless.

    Simply by plugging in my Furman ref 20i pc lowers emi by 200-300 on entire 120 leg. Further emi reduction is gained by going through the Furman. Plugged into a dc inverter generator where the power is really dirty (over 2,000) the noise harvestors do nothing at all. But the Furman will lower the emi on that dirty electricy by several hundred points.

    I also have several quietlines; they operate the exact same way; completely worthless as there's not even blinky blue lights to watch.

    In my case I keep them and use them all simply because I have them. I could not sell them to anyone and lie claiming they lower emi a meaningful amount because they do not.

    They're not really designed to remove EMI but instead other frequencies that piggyback off the 60Hz sine wave.

    Do you have any personal experience with them? If not don't post any of Mcgowan's videos as I don't believe anything that guys spouts.
    Perhaps I'm listening for noise reduction in the wrong type of noise. So they selectively lower the noise floor in one area but not another?

    They do help (or they can in certain cases) but IMO, I would look elsewhere for a much more effective product. Out of all of the ones I have tried, 5 Puron's made a rather nice change in my rig.

    https://verafiaudiollc.com/products/best-audio-products/puron-plug-in-ac-line-conditioner-52299808

    I was very skeptical of these things after my experience with iFi's line conditioner and the 3 PS Audio Noise Harvesters but after reading some of the observations over at this thread >>> https://www.whatsbestforum.com/threads/the-best-plug-in-filter-ever.35948/ I decided to take a leap of faith after reading about the empirical evidence and having a conversation with Mark. If they did nothing? I would have simply returned them, no big deal.

    Yeah, they ain't going anywhere. I was very pleasantly surprised with the changes they brought to the rig......and I am still enjoying what they do everyday.
