If you "see" a lot of junk on your AC, the next step would be to open up the audio-kit and "see" if that junk makes it beyond the PSU. If it does, measures like on-line UPS would not be a waste because guessing what happens beyond the PSU is almost impossible. If it's really bad, you could detect it by "seeing" it on the speaker-feeds with all the kit switched on but playback paused. If you don't "see" it on the speaker-feeds: that doesn't mean the noise does not distort music when it's playing. So, the next step would be encoding a flac (can't use mp3 because audiophiles don't use mp3;-) with a 1 kHz test-tone, playing it while "looking" at the speakerfeed. Repeat with more sample-freqs between 20Hz and 20kHz to make sure. When all is clean, the problem isn't audible but it could still hurt the kit itself. I'm so glad I live on a boat ;-) BTW: you don't sound like you're in your teens anymore so what does it matter for you? your ears are dead meat already, just like mine :) ciao!
