No, I think it's pseudo-scientific ~~bollocks~~ balderdash. Termination of your bank account perhaps?

Chord Company Bridge
Prices from £500.00 (UK RRP)

Enjoy enhanced audio streamer performance (incl. Naim Audio) without an external power supply.

Added protection from HF noise on the signal ground. Even small quantities of this noise can have a significant impact on a system’s musical performance.

The Chord Company Bridge is hand built in UK and upgrades the lightweight, unshielded shorting plug supplied with audio streaming equipment, offering a no-compromise, noise-reduced connection. It features a machined heavy-gauge aluminium case for both acoustic and electrical isolation. The Taylon® insulated wiring and resin-dampened internal assembly further increase this isolation.

Prototype testing with a few Naim NDX owners generated enthusiastic requests for Bridge units for use in their own systems. Only too happy to oblige, we commissioned a limited run of cases and hand assembled each unit. We can supply these while our case stocks last!

You know that noise that gets inside high-end network players through the holes in unused - i.e. disconnected - sockets...

22 grand for a mains cable.

How on earth could this deliver electricity in a way so revolutionary it is worth anything like that kind of money, even if you have a 250k system or the like ...

I have a slightly different version fo that chaps, its in the cable box. For Nordostt its good, however the WBF boys arn't that emanmered with it lol

Maybe you should not be looking at this lower end of the market, plenty more signal transmission devices above this pay grade lol
