Your Favorite AC Outlets


I am getting ready to re-do my AC runs from my junction box to my listening room; going to add dedicated lines for my monoblocks. I want to upgrade my wall receptacles to good quality isolated grounded outlets. Have you tried the PS Audio outlets? Is their higher priced gold plated outlets that much better than their cheaper model? What brand(s) do you like best?

About 2 years ago I was looking to upgrade my phono-pre. The owner of the store told me to bring my phono-pre and we would compare it to his. I listened for about 30 minutes and couldn't tell the difference between mine and his. Mine retailed for 2000.00 and his retailed for 3500.00. The owner of the store said he heard a slight difference but it wasn't worth the difference in price.

The way I see it If I could not tell the difference in a phono-pre that cost almost 2 times as much as mine am I going to hear the difference with a 50.00 AC outlet?
