Any one try the new Synergistic Research BLUE UEF Duplex receptacle?

Don’t be too alarmed, labtec is a known SR hater. It’s not like he’s a real person with real concerns.

$285.00 ?? What a Stupid price. Trolling for  Fuls?  Barnum & Bailey would be hysterical ! :)

I see that you are off your meds again.

First....... I am a believer that an electrical outlet can have an impact on the sound of an audio system.

Take a good look at the two outlets in the two Links below. Not the Blue, but the Black. I would be willing to bet the Blue is also a P&S outlet as well.

Are they the same? Sure look the same to me.

For those of you that have the Synergistic Research Black or Blue UEF outlet the mounting back strap of the outlet sure looks like it is made of galvanized steel. That’s not good, is it? Have a magnet? Check it out. Is the magnet attracted to the back strap?

While you are at it check the screw terminals on each side of the outlet with the magnet. Are they also made of steel?

Speaking of duplex screws.. Anyone else notice if using stranded wire to the Duplex wire straight in, not to a lug, it will always loosen up after install. 100% gets looser and needs to be retightened after a month or so. Solid core not so much. Just sayin'.
