Oyaide P004 and C004 plugs

@jasbirnandra - have you considered that the Furutech plugs you are using may not be the cause of your harshness?

We tend to attribute the changes to sound to the latest system/cable change we have made, but in the case of power plugs, it might just be attached cable or the Interconenct cables that are the cause of the harshness.

But first, as others have stated - allow sufficient break in time - at least 100 hours,

Personally I use SonarQuest silver plated copper connectors for everything

After 24 hours of use things are smoothing out and getting better and musical with more air, good high and tight bass.

+1 on the SonarQuest. I have used both the silver plated copper and pure copper.

Listen to Steve. The wiring/cabling is more important than the connectors...

Just ran in set of fi 28r and they are wonderfull sounding...Nice open soundstage and i feel they are the sweet spot in furutech’s offerings.No hint of the typical minuses of rhodium.Indeed alot of hrs on them has made the difference.

(Steve's word is well founded and taken,its everything though imho)

Im really curious about the sonarquest stuff...I like the lego but man that iec is tough to wrestle with.Suppose the sonar's would be much the same.I dont have near the skills that "williwonka" has at his craft...trust his judgement on these things though.Everytime i say im done putzing around with wire/ac/sc.😖
