Your Favorite AC Outlets


I am getting ready to re-do my AC runs from my junction box to my listening room; going to add dedicated lines for my monoblocks. I want to upgrade my wall receptacles to good quality isolated grounded outlets. Have you tried the PS Audio outlets? Is their higher priced gold plated outlets that much better than their cheaper model? What brand(s) do you like best?

I've been experimenting with receptacles for years. Each receptacle has it's own characteristics and some equipment/cords seem to to better with a specific receptacle. If you looking for dynamics and great tight bass the Teslaplex is probably the best choice. They seem to be better with high current equipment. For certain components/systems they could be fatiguing. The Maestro has the most natural sound/presentation of the receptacles I have tried; however not as good as the Teslaplex in the lower frequencies. A combination has worked best for me.

Just close your eyes and click your heels and say there is a difference there is a difference.
Schipo,
Apparently your ears (and mind) are closed, or you would be able to hear the difference.
You still haven't said what outlets you have tried that led you to your authoritative conclusuion. I suppose that based on your belief that they are a sham, that you haven't tried any; in which case we are back at square one. If you haven't tried them, you are not qualified to comment on them.

Nope. ANYONE can have an opinion REGARDLESS of whether or not they've "heard" a piece or not. We are ALL entitled to an opinion. If you choose to acknowledge said opinion that is YOUR choice/issue.

This notion that audiopills (sp) have regarding "qualifying conditions" is laughable IMO.
Notec,
How can a person form an opinion on something that they have not experienced? It is then no longer an informed opinion, it is a wild guess.
And as far as you are concerned, if you think that it is valid to have an opinion on a product that you have not experienced, I would say that it is you who are "laughable".
