It is possible to use them on audio compoenet cords, but it does take a lot of work.

Ferrites work very well on non audio components however: Computers, printers, appliances, lamps, everything else plugged into the wall. I use two per cord, one at each end, and the placement itself changes the overall sound. I like thema bout 10 inches from the end: Mike Vans Evers had a white paper about this and even manufactured PC's with the concept of adjusting string nodal resonances.
