Are these fake?

I see it on the receptacles but you're right a generic box. Just realized same seller as these Accuphase SC's which also must be fake. Nuff said. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Accuphase-speaker-cable-Spade-Plug-Hi-End-2-5M-8-ft-Pair/222519979063

I have a hospital grade outlet at home. Solar? I have that too, but only at the desert hideout. I was mostly just curious the cut product tastes like the real thing. My son has a fake Rolex, he loves it.

@sgreg1 - Wow, some actual insight! 

@glupson Thanks for that link

Natural selection

I never really planned on buying the China knock off, but was mostly wondering how counterfeit it ‘really’ was, not just in aesthetics. There’s always talk about the same production facilities offloading surplus to black market, I know this very well from encountering it quite often in my dayjob. Alas, no pirate Furutech products were purchased over here. Thank you all.

If lockdown has been good for anything in my home, it’s been DIY. Installed the whole house surge protector last week, and yesterday finished pulling 50ft of 10 gauge cable through 50ft of conduit in the crawl space under my house. To say I’m in physical pain is an understatement LOL. But because I bypassed the cost of an electrician running the dedicated circuit, I ‘splurged‘ on a SR blue duplex and plate. I know there’s lots of heated debate on here over the SR receptacle bring simply a juiced up Leviton, so I installed it alongside a Leviton to A/B and see if I can hear a difference between the two, won’t be a true A/B since it’s not the exact base but we’ll see. My ears might be there yet, but again, bored in lockdown and needed projects.
