[QUOTE="Michael415, post: 747936, member: 22754"] Personally I would be leary of such a product making these claims. My initial guess is that most of this interference is actually coming from the computer itself with the audio path being crammed so close to the noisy hardware. The software may target the frequencies that typically one hears from emi and reduces them similar to an eq. Course the downside would be any music at that frequency will be filtered as well. BTW encoding method and encoding rate could make a difference as well as the headphones you use. Lossless is going to have less artifacts (obviously) that are introduced into your music therefore contributing less to the problem overall. Also if you use a pair of headphones that have a higher ohm rating they are more forgiving on a slightly dirty signal aka a 600 ohm pair of Beyerdynamic's vs. grado's or UE's. [/QUOTE]
