I'm currently using Audio Envy's OKTA PRO Gold receptical. In addition my Naim dealer, AV Options carries a deep cryo Hubble that performs well and both outlets bested the PS Audio and Pangea in my system. Good luck with your upgrade.

Recommendations for 20 amp electrical outlets
Greetings,
I’d like to get some recommendations for 20 amp electrical outlets.
I currently have two PS Audio outlets in my current room, but my system will be relocated to its permanent location when I finish my dedicated listening room in a few months. I’m using 10 gauge Romex for the dedicated 20 amp outlets.
I have a few electrical outlets on my list of interest;
- Audioquest NRG Edison Duplex
- Pangea Audio Premier XL
- The Maestro Outlet (by Cruze First Audio) - *Great reviews on website and forums
- Hubbell outlet (not sure of any particular model number?)
Please share your impressions and any comparison experiences would be great.
Thanks in advance!
@nutty Thank you! |
@immatthewj Here is a very comprehensive article on IG receptacles. Fig 6 shows the basics at a glance. Not very onerous to implement if installing a new circuit, but what are the benefits in terms of noise suppression over a 12/2 Romex homerun? This is a straight question, I don't actually know the answer.

Thank you, @devinplombier . I truly don't have a good understanding of the subject of home electrical and the isolated ground nomencalure confused me (which is not hard to do). Amm my circuits, including the dedicated circuits I installed for my system, are NOT isolated ground circuits, and obviously none of my duplex receptacles are IG receptacles. I was confusing IG with the uninsulated equipment ground. Just something else to put in the "what I learned today" column. Thanks again for helping me out with that. |
