| Akiko Tuning Stick AC -- It IS Magic Bacardi,I much prefere (in my systems) the Furutech GTX-D (Rhodium) over the Meastro outlet. Keep in mind the Furutech is going to take about 500 hours to fully mature and not fluctuate in sound. | |

| Wall Outlet Oyaide, Furutek, Wattgate, and others Macdude,I've read where others say the Furutech GTX-D outlet with the addition of the outlet frame and cover was an improvement but the cost of all of this (like audio) is crazy! What is considered to be a good price for the frame and cover?Has an... | |
| Rhodium vs Gold AC connectors Audiolabyrinth,Yes, I burned in all of my Furutech GTX-D (R) outlets on my Audioharma Cable Cooker for 700 hours. All I've experienced is constant solid music with no fluctuations. I have not gotten to the point of trying various connectors as men... | |
| Rhodium vs Gold AC connectors There is a place for Rhodium and a place for Gold all depending on ones system and personal preferences. | |
| Advantage of Balanced over RCA for phono cables This is not the answer you are looking for because it's vague however in my opinion you have to try it for yourself, in your own system, to really know what you prefer. That's not an inexpensive thing to do unless you have some friends or a dealer... | |

You don't have to spend a fricking fortune to create great sound.Over 30+ years I have experimented with single ended vs... | |

| Ching Cheng Power Cords FYI: I just found out the Absolute Power Cord MkII is no longer available. GTT said it will be replaced by the Absolut Power Cork MK III sometime in the future. | |
| Ching Cheng Power Cords Just thought I'd mention "The Absolute Power Cord Mk II" that GTT Audio & Video sells. I believe it's 8' long and sells for $45 plus shipping. I own some of the original ones that I purchased years ago and they were a lot of bang for the buck.... | |

| RUNNING POWERED SPEAKERS FROM AN IMAC Audiowoman,I'm happy to hear you like the Audioquest Dragonfly.Why don't you phone the place you purchased it from and let them advise you regarding your questions above? I'll bet they get those questions all the time. | |
| Retired audiophile? Im retired and in general I agree with your opening post.I think there comes a time when some of us are happy with what we hear within our system and we dont have the urge to upgrade and/or try new or different tweaks.Sometimes that could be bec... |
