Bob Bundus was wrong.


He said the Wattgate recepticle was like a "$10,000.00 upgrade. Its more like a $5,000.00 - $7,000.00 upgrade.
Hi Bob.

Review DVD Audio , Wattgate digital connection , VD Nite front END, Wattgate Classe Connection Nite VD, Wattgate {2}, 3 VD Nite's for 3 discrete dedicated line playback.

The Band was in my house. Richie Blackmore says hello.

Have to give a serious thumbs up to the Wattgate's.

Hi Mike !
Speaking of Watergate. Nixon used Wattgate outlets too. If you listen to the tapes the detail and soundstage depth is amazing!
Darrylhifi - I think the simple explanation is that Bob was referring to the full retail upgrade while you may be recommending the upgrade based on Audiogon pricing. Come to think of it, maybe Bob's 10k was official pricing of his Accuphase and yours is gray market... Or maybe...
Is Deano wrong? I mean, he's got a very expensive rig w/ Lamm preamp, 20K Monoblocks, plus good hearing. I presume that little near field system of his has indeed some resolution..

This is what he wrote about the Wattgates:

I have just purchased three PS Audio Power Ports. They were on sale @ $30 each, so I took advantage of that. Also got a "B" stock PS Audio Juice Bar for $125. I don't think I can go wrong.

Is Wattgate really worth it?

Who's got it right, then?

For the record, I have not heard the P&S nor the Wattgate.
