Receptacle on floor?
I have both types of outlets (in wall and in floor) and I notice absolutely no difference. I think the key is to use good quality outlets. One good example is the Porter-port as seen here on Audiogon. There are several others available at differen... 
Which preamp Dodd or Cary slp-98L
