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


Hi dear fellows!Do you know how many hours needs a Furutech AC connector to breaking?I' ve heard something like 150 hours.Is that ok or may be sooner is the breaking time?Any comments will be appreciated.Cheers!Rafael.

Hi Audiolabyrinth.
In my opinion if you are satisfied with the result of rhodium gtx d in the power amp, then I don`t see the convinience to test gold outlet.It could be advisable to test it only if you find something in the sound performance that doesn`t convince you( for instance if it is a sound with too much control, full of details but with no engaging listening, if it has restrained mids etc)but if it is not your case, then keep using the rhodium outlet in the Krell fpb 700cx.Anyway if you want to make the test with the gold version in the Krell, buy only if you want, I will appreciate your comments.Good point mentioned Michelzay regarding the relation between interconnects and speakers cablesĀ“s base metal and the gold or rhodium connectors.I will take it into account.Cheers!Raf
Audiolabyrinth,
It's possible you might like the gold on your CDP while using the rhodium on the amp etc.
Rafael0054, I am going to listen to the Furutech GTX-D Gold on the Krell 700cx to be sure witch outlet is the clear winner for this amp anyway, that way, surely I have covered all angles of test, with nothing left out of the audiophile world to listen to between them, I will let you know soon, thankyou Rafael0054.
Hi Audiolabyrinth.
I will be very curious about your test.It will be of great help to many audiophilers including me. Many thanks!Cheers.Raf
Rafael0054, wow!, glad I listened to you!, The oddest thing happened between the Furutech GTX-D Gold and Rhodium on my Krell 700cx amp, The Rhodium sounded better in every way but one, and I mean one, important part of the sound, The Gold had better, bigger, fuller, lower bass than the Rhodium on the amp, I do not understand this, the bass was way better on the digital player with the Rhodium, it's like I had a bass suck out, half notes of the bass, I am going to run more test!, I am going to put the both of these Furutech GTX-D Rhodium and Gold on the entire system for the first time today, the Rhodium that clearly is better in every way on the tube/solid state hybred digital, and the Gold on the Krell amplifier, see what happens, again, I ask everyone, has anyone mixed the two version's before with success?
