A good plan is to connect all the audio equipment to the same wall outlet box or power strip.

You may want to try DA&T AC filter. I am getting good results with 4 of them for my chain. Set-up can look something like the picture attached, top distributor for computer, bottom distributor for audio equipment:

'froger' is that 3 AC filters in series????
Why????????

I believe the filter works by reducing the EMI interference of the power usage of each audio equipment when they are taping from the same power outlet. And the chinese manual also indicates that noise will be further reduced when you connect two filters in series.
