In Reply to: RE: Using Rochelle salt to absorb EMI from your homes AC line to supercharge your audio system performance posted by cdc on November 14, 2023 at 22:57:25
Is there any added value in treating outlets that are not in use and/or light switches that are in the "off" position? No current is flowing in those two instances, so no EMI, I would think.

Great question. The answer is yes.
Think of it this way. For every square foot of living area in your dwelling/home it takes about 1' of wire to wire up the entire home. So a 2000 square foot home takes approx. 2000' of wire. All this wiring is acting like an antenna picking up and accumulating EMI/EMF noise. Once you treat the junction points (AC outlets and light switches) throughout your home, you will realize this is true.
Very easy to test the above. Treat an unused outlet or light switch wired on the same or different circuit and "hear" it effect your sound system. The more of these junctions treated across the AC wiring in your home, the more resolving your system will get. Just try what I am sharing, you will understand.
Is it possible (as in most tweaks that I've had) to overdo this....or as it would seem to be...just do the whole house.?? I've done about 1/2 the house and I seem to be hearing a closing in rather than opening up?
If you are hearing a shrinking of the sound stage, presentation getting too warm or rolling off top end, you are using too much Rochelle salt on the ground side. If you are hearing a loss of detail or ultra fine resolution you are using too much on the Hot side. Resolution should be improving with each and every 1-3 installs/treatments of junction points. If done properly, your system will get more resolving all the way until all the junctions are treated. Trust me on this.
..so, if as you say I used too much salt, would you remove all the packets and replace them with 1/2 amount specified, or continue using the half and leaving the installed packets
Whatever I say at this point would be a guess. That is why I recommended to treat one junction at a time then listen, then tune/adjust. Then move to the next junction point and repeat.
In your case if I were you, I would start at the last junction point you think where the sonic improvement stopped and adjust from that point.
Think of it this way. After each junction point you treat there should be no sonic degradation, should be an improvement. Use what I said in the previous post to you as a guide for ground and hot side tuning.
From all the reports back from people around the world that have installed this tweak, they report preferring any where from .33 grams to 1 gram is best for them. All report after finding the correct amount to use for them, after every 1-3 installs, resolution in there systems increase until all junctions in their homes wiring is treated.
Probably it all depends on the amount of EMI/EMF that the homes wiring is exposed to, picks up and how sensitive the system is to the noise.
