Breaking of Furutech's AC connectors...??

Hi Audiolabyrinth.Your welcome!Up to now...which are the differences in sound performances betweenn gtx-d rhodium vs gtx- d Gold outlet`s?I see you´ve choosen the rhodium version for a tube/solid state hybred digital player.That would confirm the ^theory ^that tube based equipments likes rhodium.I ´m curious to see how the rhodium outlet will work with your krell FPB 700 which is solid state.According to that theory gold might work better than rhodium but who knows....??I will appreciate your feed back.Cheers!Raf

Hi Rafael0054, well yesterday, the Gold sounded better on the Tube/solid state Hybred digital player, to tell you the truth here, these crazy outlet's are going back and fourth with the break-in, I do not believe I will be able to get a complete impression of anything untill they are done?, ah, yes, my baby, The Krell 700cx comes home, I am excited to get it back, I futhered the modds with better power supplies, if anything could kick the crap out of break-in of the outlet's, LOL!, It will be the Krell 700cx, 6000 watts total power out-put, around a few hundred watts in stand-by, Rafael, I will be giving you all my feed back on all this, you have helped me alot,stay tuned, thankyou.

Rafael0054, LOL!, Now that the amp is back, The Rhodium sounds incredible over the main system on my digital player, both are really good, you cannot go wrong with either, however, The Rhodium is warmer and not as hard sounding as the Gold with smoothnesss, way deeper sound stage, 3 dimensionality!, I am perplexed as to why the gold is a smichen faster sounding than the Rhodium, oh, both are vocal kings, very nice, at 179 hrs, we cannot understand what possibly could get better with the sound with more break-in?, mmm, really!, this can get better?

Rafael0054, Hi, The Rodium Furutech GTX-D won the position on the tube/solid state hybred digital player, the outlet bring's out all the performance of the Tara labs cobalt power cord with oyaide termination's, yesterday, I tried the Rhodium on the Krell 700cx, do you think I should try the Gold there?, seem's like it would be a wast of time and hard work, The Rodium did NOT sound bright on the amp at all, Rafael, this is not an issue of tubes versus solid state between these two outlet's, but rather sound stage placement, dimensionality,, clarity, and how much can your system handle without sounding harsh with detail of the Rodium outlet, if you answer here, I will elaborate more with you, I do enjoy talking with you.

Hi Audiolabyrinth.
I`m glad that you have arrived to make your choice.I think that if the Krell fpb 700cx sounds great with rhodium, then stay with rhodium.Normally audiophile people try differents products when they don`t get the performance of sound they are looking for or sometimes just for curiosity, but that is not your case I suppose.If it ever happens that you get accustomed to the sound of GTX-D rhodium and you want to have something different , then try the gold.You must take into account that both outlet´s should be broken in to make a fair comparison.According to what you`ve said this matter of rhodium or gold outlets doesn´t depend if they are used in a tube based or an SS system.I suspect then that is all system dependent(each equipment with its preferable outlet)According to sound differences I haven`t tried these outlets, just rhodium vs Gold AC connectors and the diferences were in medium sizes, velvety or silky character, extension in hight frequencies, bigger bass frequencies and depth of soundstage.How many hours have you used the GTX-D R in your system?Can you tell us the changes you notice with the hours of break in?Many thanks for your feed back!Cheers!Raf
