Good outlet for amplifiers
I have a circuit in my listening room for my amplifiers and it uses a dedicated ground. Right now I have two duplex outlets connected - and I use the primary outlet (first on the run) for the amps (reserve secondary for subwoofers if needed). I would like to install better quality outlets for this - two duplex, set up for a dedicated ground. I could see spending $100-$200 per duplex, if that gets me something decent. I want it to grip the plugs well. Recommendations?
PS - I'm running two VAC Phi-200 amplifiers (200w tube amps, KT88)

Thanks, sounds like it is the rhodium then. Just received a Viborg rhodium outlet, and I'm debating putting in on the freezer in the garage for a month instead of into the hifi system. One hand it is interesting to hear the changes, but 400 hours again; even listening for 12 hours a day that is 33 days. Think after just doing that math I have decided the former. |
Hi, @mclinnguy , Yes, I know. Was wondering if anyone had them, and thoughts. Rhodium I don’t understand, it’s a lousy conductor. All copper or better yet silver coating seems the way to go. My thought on the all copper is your attaching bare copper wires to it anyway some decades old and they I imagine never get cleaned and polished. Personally I’d go with the silver. Can someone explain to me why rhodium is even in the equation? |
