brass outlet covers...anyone try them? Sound good

So the outlet cover acts as a drumhead transmitting vibration to the electrical current? Regardless whether one can hear the differences between types of covers, that "explanation" makes absolutely no sense.

Freemand, make a video tape of you describing the differences in sound between outlet covers you observed and post it on YouTube. I guarantee that you'll have your 15 minutes.

Here is some reading material for those of you that may be interested in outlet cover plates.

Why or exactly how the darn things works, heck if I know. I also can not tell you why a receptacle with a brass back mounting strap, like that of the Hubbell HBL8300H or the Hubbell 5362 will effect the sonics of an audio system.... Smoother sounding, lower noise floor, deeper tighter bass, ect, ect. And as many of us know a receptacle of equal quality as the Hubbell receptaces but with a steel back mounting strap will not give the same effect. Why is that?

The only sure way for a non believer to totally disprove that a receptacle cover plate will not cause change of the sound of your system, good or bad, is to try it.

Brass as an RF shield. New constuction electrical boxes with proper mechanical grounding for resonance control. AC mains box with proper mechanical grounding/direct coupling for resonace control. Rememeber this is your first chance for control as IT enters your home. Interested..Tom

This is purely an absurd waste of bandwidth. I'd like to know how much time you spend on room acoustics? Room acoustics are a part of your system than can have very audible improvements.
No offense but you got to be pretty bored listening to receptacle covers.

Just another application of vibrational behavior/acoustics, musical instruments or electronic chassis's.Another benefit maybe a gain in efficiency. Tom
