Wall Outlet Oyaide, Furutek, Wattgate, and others


Hi

Any recommendation which the Better Wall Outlet : Bicchino , Furutek , Oyaide , Wattgate or Others?
i used the power. Cord : Elrod Statement Gold, Diamand for the Amp,
And Purist 25 Anniversary for the rest equipment.j

Once upon a time on a similar thread these words came off my finger tips.

I purchased single outlet Hubbell 6361's less resonance I believe, all brass and copper save for some external mounting and one terminal screw which I replaced for brass. I had these triple cyro'd and ordered single gang stainless [virtually non magnetic] steel mounting plates. $6 for each of the outlets $6 for the plates and 20 bucks for the cryo for the 10 I had treated. In the past I found some name brand Gucci priced duplex's that were suppose to be entirely non ferrous, non magnetic. Guess what with the aid of a neodymium magnet I made the internal parts hop around so they were not as written non magnetic. I sent all these back. Some complain that copper based alloys may oxidize and wear more quickly the single plugs are always full and never unplugged. All my power cords use copper connectors as well so I may never see or hear the affects of galvanic corrosion. I believe in the synergy of using the same materials.Tom
I was thinking about my post above regarding plating. I got this off the Cardas web site.

"Materials: All of our male RCA plugs are machined from brass. Contact surfaces are plated with silver, silver with a rhodium flash, or gold. Outer barrels are plated with silver or gold. Dielectric is FEP."

If you read above, a brass rca connector is plated with silver. After that, they plate it again with gold or rhodium. That's 3 different metals. So if you buy either a gold or rhodium connector, it has a silver plate underneath that you are probably not aware of. I'm wondering how much that intermediate plate has on sound quality.
I would like to know, what is better, The best Furetech or the best Oyaide recepticle, I researched them, they are very similiar, the one thing I cannot come to terms with is the fact neither recepticle has a isolated ground on them, and at the asking price, that's really inadequete!
I decided on getting the furetech GTX-D recepticle gold, the spring clamping and the way the conductor is put in a hole on the back, then tighten the screw on the side all the way down on the raw electrical conductor was the deciding factor to me, I believe this will sound better just by the way it is designed, cheers.

Side and back mounts for wire. You can clamp just the bare wire. All brass non ferrous. The parts/screws that are magnetic you can replace with brass. 6-8 US on Ebay and then you can have a whole bucket full cryo'd for cheap. These sound really good. Lower resonance than a standard duplex. Tom
