Ok, I'm not looking to start a flame war. But can someone tell me why the power from the plant to my house is going to be noticeably improved by an outlet? I have an open mind some please tell me.
Well, believe it or not. The premium outlet (like PS Audio's PowerPort) that I am using does make a big difference. In fact, it was one of the best upgrade I have ever made in my audio life. I am not an engineer. I can't explain why. The premium outlet has better metal and it also allows very tight grip on the power cord. That may explain the sound improvement.
I used the FIM in place of a "Hospital Grade" receptacle on my two dedicated lines, I was expecting a possible slight improvement but it was a considerable one. By "Logic" no power cord or other change you make should produce a difference given the distance the current travels before it gets to your house. But it makes a difference to my ears and there are explanations why this should be so; there are many threads on this topic.
