PS audioPower Port Receptacle

id like to hear feedback from owners of this recepttacle (the grey 50 dollar one). Ive got 2 dedicated 20 amp circuits, and the receptacles i used are the commercial ones at an electrical store..12 buck each, vs .79c normal ones in homes. i will say they grip the plus Very well..i doint hear any noise, just wondering if its worth upgrading...ty

I had a power port,which I eventually replaced with an Oyadi plug. PS power ports excel in dyamics and bass, but they have a hint of harshness to them. This may be due to their nickel plating which can be magnetized. On the whole, they were a clear improvement over the regular plugs but I prefer the more expensive Oyadi to them.

I'm having an odd problem with a power port. Maybe some one else has had this experience. I'll normally unplug everything if thunderstorms are likely in my area. When I try to plug back in, one of the two recepticles does not want to let the plug in. I'm using Signal Cable power cords (2 of them) and it doesn't matter which one I try to plug in - same problem. I can eventually get a plug to go in, but usually it requires entering from an angle (to one side or the other) as opposed to straight on. Anybody have a similar problem? My next step is the PS Audio forum. Thanks.
