Hi Dave, I may be able to help by applying the advice graham gave me. Do you know what material your cable insulation is made of? If not can you tell me the manufacturer details so I can find out. Either way I can work out how far from the mains plug to fit your ferrites and you can try it.

I'm sure the above would work better if the mains socket was an earthed metal clad type which acts as an enclosure. And if the supply to it was a radial steel wire armoured cable direct from the fuse-board/consumer unit. It would make more sense.
That none should be able to park up and enjoy the view without a smartphone and the knowledge in how to use apps

The power cables are just standard, as you would get with any electrical equipment,1.8 metres  in length.
Speaker cables are Van damme  uplcofc 4mm, 2metres in length.
Hope that helps.
Cheers
Dave
