Mains spikes

Does anybody know whether these Russ Andrews Superclamp and Megaclamp devices work and do they degrade the sound quality with Naim?

I used to have one of those big plugs that you can connect four mains leads into. It originally came with a protector thingy in it, and made the stereo sound awful. As soon as I removed the protector, it sounded great.

I suspect that adding the Russ Andrews plug would be a great way to make your system sound crap. A good separate spur, with a hydra or iGel, is all you need.

I have russ andrews distribution block - used to use it on a 102/hicap/180/sbl at my old place. Got the sbls working correctly in the new place, then slowly went back to stock Naim interconnects etc...

The block now powers my av stuff, where isincreased resolution, and also gave a sharper picture to the lcd tv feeding off it.

In short, with non-Naim kit such items do seem to work IMV.
