"Theoretically", it should work to precede all hi-fi gear with a balanced type 120V power supply, where the ground is defined as the difference between two 60V legs that are opposite phases (ie., plus and minus 60V), with a perfectly centered tap that functions as the neutral (ground reference). This "should" block or cancel any noise stemming from "incidental" capacitive discharging along with the reactive noise caused by component leakage, and it "should" also keep the AC supply at its practical maximum, since none is wasted on this sort of noise. Of course, the devil is in the details, and this sort of balanced system has to remain perfectly balanced into any load. One benefit from a "properly functioning" balanced AC system might be that one no longer needs a regenerator.

For fun reading, start at Equi=Tech, also check out similar Furman units.
