Good outlet for amplifiers

Best - Furutech GTX-D(G Gold) - The GTX-D(R Rhodium was too bright for me, but it is a detail machine...but took forever to break in)

I have the GTX-D Rhodium and did notice it took more than 400 hours. So it was the rhodium that caused the long break in, and not the NCF? The gold broke in with less time?

I'm not sure what caused the long break in to be honest, I just know the Rhodium took me over 3 months.....not sure of the total hours. I was working with 8 (9?) receptacles for about 13 months. I also tend to prefer gold plated, then silver plated, then rhodium plated in that order

The GTX-D(G) took about 6 or so weeks, the Oyaide R-1 about the same. In my new listening room I'm installing two Furutech GTX-D(Gs), one Oyaide R-1 on the dedicated lines.......and the Acme Audio Labs silver/cryo/CFC elsewhere.

And I don't want to abuse the Furutech rhodium plated, but they are REALLY detailed and it was too much in any of my systems. I could see it being really helpful for people with "dark" systems

I don't see much better grip from a duplex outlet than the top offerings from Hubbell and for a fraction of the cost Pass & Seymour.  I use both and frankly I always recommend 20 amp P & S's with the clamping from the back to the wire for thirty plus years and everyone I've checked is still very tight.  When I added P & S (now discontinued) Grey/ clear body colored ninety degree male plug to the end of a power cord, the two gripped like a permanent bond.  To this day they hold well as a recent visit to an acquaintances home where I did this in the early 1990's.  Still my fav right angle plug if you can get them that  was reasonably priced.

Don't waste money on power cables receptacles plugs fuses conditioners etc.. nothing but snake oil. Take your wife to concerts if you have extra money.
