Sorry but I don't really buy your line that you were sceptical about this device to begin with and were amazed that it had an effect.
All tweaks are debatable Try before you buy
What is in this system now works and very well.
A Grounding box seemed a flight of fancy to me, maybe there could be a subtle difference - I thought
The RTZ comes with Black Ravioli fitted.
The improvements were noticeable with each cable added
Yes, I tried a granite placemat on the RTZ, knowing it wouldn't make any difference. Surprised it did.
A brick would probably work as well just won't look so good
As above I can demo this in North West Surrey
Try any of the tweaks above in any decent system and there will be an improvement.
Grounding boxes is Mains cables squared in most places.
If anyone wants to hear more from their system try some, all of this stuff out.
