Audphile1 and shtr74sims,
Agreed. The GTX-D(G) works best right now with my all solid state gear and a $15,000 mid-fi level. I also have a Tubes4hifi (Bob Latino) VTA ST-120 tube amp that I need to integrate somehow once my listening room is finished later this year. In the end I'll have 3 dedicated circuits, and will have both the gold and rhodium receptacles.....and I'll use whatever plug works best for those components. I also really do like the Oyaide R1 receptacle a lot.....not sure what I might do with that, if anything.
