Replacing generic RECEPTACLES


How important is it to replace your generic receptacles with audio grade receptacles . I already replaced my stock power cords to high end Shunyatas. Would it still be necessary to still change my generic receptacles to audio grade?

Your insults are probably a reflection of insecurity that stems from lack of understanding how power supplies and amplifiers really work. People, the laws of physics cannot be subverted by anything, let alone magic pixie dust sprinkled to obtain imaginary improvements in sound quality.

I’m not here to belittle anyone. Insults and behaviour such as some members have demonstrated is the downfall of social media, and only makes a mockery of this forum. To those people I say - go ahead and keep it up if you want. That is your prerogative. Not mine.

>>>>>Thanks for showing some restraint by not belittling or mocking anyone. 😬 And we applaud your defense of social media.

To answer your question - yes you will hear a significant improvement in the music your system plays when you upgrade the wall outlet. It is simply that simple. Since this will be your first experience with this part of the audio reproduction chain, buy an outlet that you can return if you do not think the change is significant, or watch the used listings here at Audiogon and buy a used outlet that you can resell if you choose to do so. 
Elizabeth has done a lot of critical listening with the Furutch outlets and I have done the same with Furutech and Synergistic Research outlets. These outlets impart a significant improvement  to a system.

I do hope you you will give audio grade outlets a try.

sleepy, A couple things:
" The laws of physics haven’t changed since the 80’s"
Agreed, however power cord, interconnect, speaker wire, & audiophile outlets have.
" The insults from some members are probably a reflection of insecurity that stems from lack of understanding how power supplies and amplifiers really work"
Or (try to think outside of yourself for a minute)...
They are probably just tired of being told what they are actually hearing is not reality because another professor or engineer has been taught this by like minded professors or engineers that read all the facts required for audiophiles to understand from books that are really really old written by men who never heard recorded music at a level that even approaches the lower fringes of high fidelity.
