Fancy wall plugs?


I have read a few articles on high-grade power outlets, such as PS Audio. My question is do you need to spend money on PS Audio or can you get the same results with a high-grade outlet like a Hubbel or Leviton hospital grade. Also which is the best to use, 15amp wiring or 20 amp to the fuse box.

Hello Hrunge,

"This is one of the best upgrades I've done for my system and just for a few bucks".

That's exactly my point. Albert's receptacles offer true "bang for the buck", IMO. I normally wouldn't rant, but Porter Ports have made a larger improvement than my last cable upgrade, which was substantial. He's on to something.

Kind regards,

I'm a novice with power conditioning. So if I understand this correctly, I can replace my standard Leviton wall outlet, that was wired into my house 30+ years ago, and may/should hear improvement in my sound? My amp, pre and CDP are all directly connected to the wall outlet.
In a word, yes, you will hear improvement. The Porter Ports are one of the best inexpensive tweaks that I've seen in years.
Didnt we just have a thread where come cryo'd and un-cryo'd outlets were passed around?
Some members sent them around A/Bing them and picked the best sounding as the un-cryo'd or could hear no difference between the two.
I use Hubbell and Leviton industrial grade.$10-$12/each.
You dont need hospital grade unless you are on 5 liters of 02 and sit right over the outlet.
I had the industrial outlets which I replaced with PS Audio and found the difference to be worth the money. This was before Porter Ports. I would buy from Albert if I ever need more outlets, based on all the great feedback he has received. Alberts Ports are cheaper and at least as good as PS Audio.

I have this strange feeling of Deja vu?!?
