Lift chokes off pc-board

found out speakers in general
 
Construction
If your speakers networks are not hardwired, but made on pc-boards, there is room for improvement. You must move inductors away from the board, and prevent they induce currents in the pc-board.
 
Setup
Use small wooden bricks to lift chokes as much as possible. Half an inch can have a big effect. This is of course depending on the layout of the pc-board, but in most boards there will be an effect.
 
Use
 
Performance
Cleaner, less distorted, more transparent sound, is what I found. This will of course vary , depending on which inductors can induce most signal into the board, and where in the network this current is induced.
