I just noticed this thread got double posted. I did not create two threads, but I did edit the text for typos after I created the first one.
Interesting that they share the same thread ID
Replaced all my Living Room Outlets
Just wanted to share that I spent about $50 and an afternoon replacing all the outlets in my home with Eaton / Arrow Hart commercial grade outlets. I don’t think it sounds better, but I sure feel a lot more peace of mind.
This house is about 16 years old and a rental for most of the time. Several outlets showed signs of wear, they either didn’t grip a plug well or had too much movement when pressed. In addition all of them were back stabbed which is a fire hazard due to the ability of them to make poor contact, which is also bad news for a stereo.
I am lucky enough to have a dedicated circuit to the living room but with all the outlets daisy chained it made no sense to replace just the outlet at the stereo. They all had to go.
I forgot who it was but an A'goner recommended outlet shim plates and I am extremely grateful for that advice.
For the price I think this was a sound (hahahaha, I’m funny) investment.

@grinnell Yeah this is a known bug in Audiogon since the update that threads get duplicated. Sounds like they are aware and trying to fix it. |
