Good outlet for amplifiers

I think this is the armored cable used.

I hope not... That’s AC armored cable. Commonly called BX cable.

Hopefully yours in MC, (Metal Clad) Cable

Edit:

This armored cable is apparently MC cable. Manufacture calls it Metal Clad. Must be new. I have never seen MC cable with a bare aluminum ground wire. Junk for feeding audio equipment, imo.

I doubt very much that’s what you have. No way that could be considered as an IG conductor.

This is AC armored cable. A different animal than MC cable.

I use a pair of PS Audio PowerPort Classics. They have a fantastic grip on heavy power cords. I haven't worried about connections since I installed them in 2007. It looks like PS Audio stopped making them, but I see them for sale on HiFi Heaven website. The price is reasonable at $50 each.

@mingles , sorry to say the one on HiFi Heaven website is not the same outlet as the PS Audio PowerPort Classics.

The ones you installed in 2007 were made by Hubbell. The real deal... I have no idea who makes the ones shown in the HiFi Heaven Website. Not Hubbell though, imo.
