Once upon a time on a similar thread these words came off my finger tips.

I purchased single outlet Hubbell 6361's less resonance I believe, all brass and copper save for some external mounting and one terminal screw which I replaced for brass. I had these triple cyro'd and ordered single gang stainless [virtually non magnetic] steel mounting plates. $6 for each of the outlets $6 for the plates and 20 bucks for the cryo for the 10 I had treated. In the past I found some name brand Gucci priced duplex's that were suppose to be entirely non ferrous, non magnetic. Guess what with the aid of a neodymium magnet I made the internal parts hop around so they were not as written non magnetic. I sent all these back. Some complain that copper based alloys may oxidize and wear more quickly the single plugs are always full and never unplugged. All my power cords use copper connectors as well so I may never see or hear the affects of galvanic corrosion. I believe in the synergy of using the same materials.Tom

Side and back mounts for wire. You can clamp just the bare wire. All brass non ferrous. The parts/screws that are magnetic you can replace with brass. 6-8 US on Ebay and then you can have a whole bucket full cryo'd for cheap. These sound really good. Lower resonance than a standard duplex. Tom
The 5361 is a single ac outlet. The 5362 is a duplex version of the 5361. They have the same connective parts except for their plastic or nylon chassis. The benefit of having the single outlet is less surface resonance offered by the single outlet versus the dual outlet. If you had a 5362 and one of the outlets was not in use then the sound of the other may suffer because the unused one would be free to resonate. I have 3 dedicated lines with 10 gauge wire. I formerly had 6 FIM 880 duplex outlets. In their place I now have 6 single 5361's each separate pair mounted side by side in a dual gang box covered with a with a nonferrous stainless steel face plate. All six outlets are in use/terminated.
Sir you can buy the HBL 5361
on Ebay for 4.99 and then send them to CryoPro in Missouri for treatment. Tom
All the ones mentioned except for the Hubbell have some internal ferrous components that I feel degrade the sound. The single units such as the 5361 will also have the least potential for mechanical resonance. The ones that have the greatest ferrous content in the signal path potentally could end up working extremely well with the power cords from the maker High Fidelity. Tom
