Albertporter only needs 50

Max......there is a safer way. I do not "wire" the outlets to the Cable Cooker's binding posts, but use purpose-built adaptors (like mini-power cables) to daisy-chain the Hubbell's. Additionally, I use the special power cable break-in adaptors I make (that are inserted *into* the binding posts), connecting them with stock power cords into the first and last receptacles, to effect AC receptacle conditioning. In this fashion, you would need 2 IEC power cable adaptors to make this work. This is inherently safer, because there are no loose wires or loose connections.

The Cable Cooker, if it "sees" a short from a loose or improperly terminated connection, will shut down (there is protection circuitry in the DC power supply). However, any misuse could possibly damage the internal circuitry. Please be VERY careful with your wiring and make sure all your connections are tight.

After consulting with Alan at Audiodharma, I have VERY carefuly made sure that the outlets are hooked to the cooker in a way that will not damage it. All systems are go, green light on the cooker. All I am missing is the little pop up thingie that they put into turkeys to tell you when the are done(Alan did give me some guidlines). I will report again after the outlets are golden brown and delicious and snug back in their home in the wall.

Here is the conclusion of my findings about the "Porter Ports". This may sound as if I have been just awarded some coveted trophy. First I want to thank all of the AudioGon members that have made this possible. Albert, for all his efforts that were above and beyond what I would expect from someone that I have never even met. The others in this group who got together and made it happen by ordering enough of the outlets. I want to mention that I have gotten a lot of help and support from other members who have been generous enough to share their advice, experience, and one who even loaned me his cable cooker. I am impressed with the comunity effort that goes into AudioGon and why for me, it has been a rewarding and positive experience.

Now for the short part! I find these outlets to have improved EVERY aspect of the performance of my system and have NO doubt that it is a remarkable transformation that NO serious listener should be without!

I hope that others have as much fun with these as I have. I am through dominating this post. I ask that others of you share your findings here with the rest of the AudioGon members.

Thanks

How did the cable cooker thing work out with the outlets?

Drubin, the cable cooker is burn in morphine. It takes the pain away! It is fast and effective. The sound is even better than the day 14 posting and I am in sonic nervana.(it won't take long for me to find the need to improve the sound again soon in some way, the 12 step program is in order)

The outcome has exceded my expectations in every way. Not a single drawback to be found!
