| Maze Audio and other audiophile power cords It could be a bit of a mix. A lot of times, the Chinese suppliers making parts for foreign clients will run excess production and sell these parts locally. So, you could actually have a hybrid, Oyaide plug body but with different screws. | |
| Warm, rich sounding interconnects? Beldon 8402 with Switchcraft? I'll check it out although I know the Asian market tends to be about the upper frequencies.. No, you are totally wrong. Just like someone making a blanket statement about the American market would be wrong. http:... | |
