Recommendations for 20 amp electrical outlets


Greetings,

I’d like to get some recommendations for 20 amp electrical outlets.

I currently have two PS Audio outlets in my current room, but my system will be relocated to its permanent location when I finish my dedicated listening room in a few months.  I’m using 10 gauge Romex for the dedicated 20 amp outlets.

I have a few electrical outlets on my list of interest;

- Audioquest NRG Edison Duplex

- Pangea Audio Premier XL

- The Maestro Outlet (by Cruze First Audio) - *Great reviews on website and forums

- Hubbell outlet (not sure of any particular model number?)

Please share your impressions and any comparison experiences would be great.

Thanks in advance!

I replaced my circuit box and then ran 12 gauge to the HiFi.  Interesting, every box I looked at used aluminum for the breakers and hence, aluminum to copper wire. So I don’t understand all the debate over which outlet is used. From the source, we probably all have a problem with connecting aluminum to copper.  No outlet, no matter how sophisticated in materials science, will alleviate this problem.  I just needed a very good outlet to make a very tight connection and then let the DC filter and line conditioner cleanup the mess.  So far, very good .
