Did anyone see this?http://www.hifi-advice.com/mad-scientist-Neo-OCC-review.html 
Breaking of Furutech's AC connectors...??
Rja - What ends did you use with the Alpha 3? I tried Neotech gold/upocc ends and thought the sound was too warm and mid-rangy for my tastes. I ran them in with a fan for a week or so, then used them for a while. Pretty sure they were run in enoug...

Thank you Ozzie. I would be interested in knowing if there is an appreciable difference with the OCC.

Recommend an RCA connector

Tubes for a Shanling CDT-100
For readers that do not know, the player comes with 4 6N3 tubes; 2 for the headphone amp and 2 for the CD player.I replaced the 2 stock 6N3s for the player side with Western Electric 396As.Clearly better than the stock tubes. 
Triode Wire Labs 10 power cord upgraded vs 10+
I had an 8 and really liked it. I sent it to Pete for the upgrade to 8+. It is simply a better cord. More detail; better imaging, soundstage and transparency - without losing the organic fullness and solidity. 
Question about Morrow ICs?
I have had the same experience with speaker cables and ICs that have been run in, taken out-and put back in - whether they are Morrow or something else. It seems to take at least 2 or more days before they sound like they did before. 
Problems with Mapleshade cables
Yes, that was an exaggeration. I have an older set of the ICs and have only seen a picture of the newer iteration. But honestly, the one I saw in the picture looks somewhat homemade to me. Presumably it sounds better than the previous version and ...
