Hi... I cannot find it at Screwfix. Do you still have the Screwfix
catalog number?

I can't believe these things improved the overall sound as much as

I think contact cleaning would do just as well or better than special

This is what I got, Superswitch unswitched, ironically:

No, I didn't ABX
Seems that this upgrade (the new unswitched power outlet) was more
significant for sound quality than I thought. The sound improvement has
been fundamental. Of course, it could all be placebo, but then again, we
might all be imaginary as well.

In this situation, the proper term is not fake but schill.

Darn, I'm jealous of you, P! You keep doing these tweaks and keep having
good results!
I put in a Furutech FP15A (cu) receptacle a few weeks ago, and noticed
absolutely no difference whatsoever :-(
I do like the good grip of the Furutech though, that's an improvement.

He he..
And the same site sells the CD treatment Intelligent Box and

While we in the UK do seem to have much better quality connectors than
you yanks, we still copy you in having an industry based around selling
contact enhancers, cryo-treated plugs, xxxium-plated copper and the
like.
I guess we copy your paranoia then :)

Today's upgrade consisted of replacing the power wall outlet. It used to
be switched (pretty normal here in the UK). Now it isn't.
Sounds a bit like someone gave the amp a good talking to, telling it to
stop dragging its feet. A clear improvement in other words. And no, I

I don't think you get hospital grade for a few pounds at Screwfix. I
suspect unswitched is more important than hospital grade anyway.

No, I didn't ABX it. And I won't even if you ask me. (Especially not if
you ask me.)
Hospital grade = ones that pump 240 volts through your heart when you
found out your wiring isn't quite as sound as you thought? ;)
