Grounding blocks, boxes and cables, what are you using?

I thought it would be good to start a thread where we can review, discuss and compare the various options out there (including DIY) for dealing with ground noise. 

I recently added two GutWire Ultimate Ground Cables to my system. One is connected to an unused RCA input on my passive autoformer pre, and the other to the unused SPDIF output on my CD transport. I am very pleased with the results, and think they are a great value for the money. They have convinced me that dealing with ground noise is an essential part of getting the very best out of your system. So what's your solution?

I have  used the Acoustic Revive- RG24 grounding disc , the Synergistic Research original Grounding Block, and now use the Synergistic Research Active Grounding Block. The SR Active is the most effective and most expensive of these devices.

I would not like to listen to music without one of the Synergistic Research devices. They are now installed in 3 different systems that I listen to.

If I was trying my first grounding device, I would look for a product with a 30 day trial policy to see if the cost benefit ratio is worthwhile.
