The Schitt Loki is inexpensive and works very well. 
Furutech GTX NCF receptical break in, how long
OP, six days on a cable cooker will help but not fully break in that Furutech GTX NCF outlet.@kosst_amojan, no offense meant to you by my posts above, but for the record do you use a Furutech GTX Gold or Rhodium outlet? 
Furutech GTX NCF receptical break in, how long
If you have not owned a Furutech GTX-D Rhodium or Gold outlet and gone through the break-in process your personal thought doesn't count. The OP isn't looking for what you think, unless you own one. Take your argument elsewhere please... "Like I've... 
Furutech GTX NCF receptical break in, how long
Many have posted on a variety of Audiogon forums that they have had the exact type of long break-in time with the Furutech GTX-D Rhodium outlets, and I know many of these Audiophiles have excellent equipment. Rhodium plated items require a longer ... 
Am i missing something without a power conditioner?
@tattooedtrackman, I have a Shunyata Denali 2000t that I have tried on my Plinius SA Reference amp. Although it did not have a negative effect on the amp, it also did nothing positive that I could detect.On the other hand, I did hear an improvemen... 
Fuses on Magnepan .7 speackers

When you really think about it everyone's hearing is different and can change from day to day or hour to hour depending on a huge variety of conditions both internal and external. I'm not so sure one needs to be a purist, maybe tone controles have... 
Am i missing something without a power conditioner?
@tattooedtrackman, yes there is a lot to consider. I believe if you have good components you will benefit from upgraded power cords.Ultimately you will also benefit from some type of good power conditioning. Here is one video on YouTube, be patien...

@jayctoy which model Niagara are planing on trying? 
Am i missing something without a power conditioner?
@tattooedtrackman,Here is an affordable unit you could find used on Audiogon etc, or buy new at a discounted price. Find a Core Power Technologies CPT 300 which has an attached power cord that works well and attach it to a power strip. This will g... 
Am i missing something without a power conditioner?
Unfortunately, you ask an open-ended question that is system dependent and the only way to know if you will hear improvement is to try it and judge for yourself.With that said, depending on which power conditioner you might try, results will vary.... 
Furutech GTX NCF receptical break in, how long
I agree, with the idea of burning in the Furutech GTX NCF outlet 24/7 for at least 10 days, possibly longer depending upon the method of burn-in. I've used my Audiodharma cable cooker on five Furutech GTX-D Rhodium outlets that I left on for three... 
Talk but not walk?
I'm sorry I came late to the party a lot has already been said and discussed but I wanted to say one thing. If one has not listened to a product regardless of what it is perhaps they should not state their opinion regarding it. Lots of debates goi...
