Well, I just bought one a month ago. Hydra (original)version is connected to it. I could not tell any sonic differnece between venom outlet and $20 hubell outlet. My equipments are B&W 801, Wadia 861 and Aragon Palladium Mono. I did not make any comparison with the $1.29 standard outlet. So.. would I buy it? No. Would I use $1.29 outle? No. Go with $20. Spend the rest of the money to a dedicated 20 amp outlet.
