The choice of wall receptacles

I recently added three dedicated circuits using 10/2 romex on 20 amp breakers and the Wattgate 381's. It seemed a bit expensive at the time However you can pick them up for around a $100.00 or less used. IMHO there was a immediate improvement in my ystem. It cleaned up the ground making the system quieter, darker and more detailed. I must admit that I no longer feel a need for power conditioning. My only mistake was pulling three (3) circuits instead of four (4). I followed the basic rule of one circuit for the amp, one for digital (CD) and one for analog (tube pre). My problem now I added a turntable and tuner so I am tapped out waiting to get another circuit puuled. Other than that life is great. I can't comment on the other devices as I have not used them, and Wattgate is probrably over priced but it is the only receptacle that is patented for audio that should be worth something. You definitlt don't want off the shelf home depot.
Happy listening.

Mapleleafs3 NO ONE said anything about $200 outlets. The gentleman was referring to buying a number of outlets the total of which is about $200!

Uppermidfi, that is correct. The Oyaide's price per receptacle I believe is not quite $100 per. I am also interested in learning more about the Porter Ports. If $200 is spent on receptacles, regardless which ones and the improvement is noteworthy then is it not worth the investment. We sometimes give more attention to true high end components and spend much more $$ for maybe a slight improvement. My goal is for a purer sound and I do not have any to A/B compare except fot the standard ones.
Answering to the response to the outside line feed I have chosen to draw the line at the wall receptacle fed with romex 10/2. Again your advise is much appreciated.

I have bought several cryo outlets from Alan at AudioExcellenceAZ, and can't speak more highly of the product or Alan. Having tried the PS Audio Power Port, I had talked with Alan about how bright the PS Audio made my system. I got a mini-education in the difference that nickel makes to the sound. I went with the Hubbell 5362 in my wall outlet and in my PS Audio Ultimate Outlet. He does an extended cryo treatment and then cooks the outlet as a sorta burn-in process. The 5362 gave a more detailed presentation wherein the increase of blackness was shocking, and due to the lack of nickel, the sound was very smooth and quite musical. Check it out at:

Good Stuff!

I have a few (4) P S Audio outlets, and I think they are easily worth the $200 cost, but if I had it to do again, I would get Porter Ports based on what so many of his satisfied customers have said. I'm not sure I got anything more with the PS Audio, but I certainly spent more.
