Not wasting my time searching for anyone’s system when they can point to it or list it. "Very substantial" is a throw away phrase.
Get the best from your system while listening without any cost
Turn off your solar systems inverter while seriously listening, as it puts very high frequency s***t back into your house mains wires, as does your microwave and anything with a smp (switch mode power supply) which ends up in your system, I’ve seen it on the oscilloscope.
And if the missus want to cook with the microwave, tell her to get take out delivered
Simple way to test if you don’t have a oscilloscope, is get a portable AM radio that does not mute if "off station", and tune down to around 700khz on AM and turn up the volume and go near any smp power supply and listen to it squeal it’s head off, this noise is getting injected into you home mains wiring and your system..

sevestanThis exactly what I do when I want to listen seriously and the missus is out, takes a few seconds, but many here don’t have dedicated audio lines to do that with. I do run all my system components through power conditions/filters for protection from transient spikes. No hums, no electrical noise at all.I have not yet seen a good power conditioner/filter that doesn’t detract from explosive transients compared to when a power/amp is plugged direct into mains, but they are great for source equipment. I use my own using isolation transformers and expensive Siemens large block filtering brick sized cans that are used in medical theater equipment, one for each source piece, that way they have some isolation from each other as well.
