eck, hu, eckankar; surat shabd yoga
What are the historical links and overlaps between Eckankar, Surat Shabd Yoga or Sant Mat? Is Eck a Blavatsky-or-New-Thought-style Westernization of a salty old Sikh practice or what? One thing that always raises my neck hairs is when these "ancient traditions" come packed with (c) copyright logos (instead of the authority of Logos).

Depends where you put your focus, and what your personal goals are.
Eckankar teaches an individual experience with the Light and Sound of God. Most religions, or religious paths have neither the Light nor the Sound, and most do not avocate that the individual has a personal experience, but are rahter told what to expect and how to experience it.
Here is one way or getting in touch with the Light and Sound of God. It's a 5 minute YouTube video, but it's the sound not the picture that's important:
