Minimalist Audiophile Power-Strip
We did a shootout, oh, well over a year ago now, comparing power-strips and this adapter here:
This adapter allows you to plug in one audiophile power cord into another. In our tests we plugged an Nordost Odin PC into an Elrod PC – the length of the Odin PC not being sufficient. This shootout allowed us to do this exact same thing with confidence in the sonic result at RMAF 2010 when one of the Odin PCs did not reach the Emm Labs XDS1 player.
For $11.52 at Amazon with super-saver shipping (and you can get it for $4 elsewhere if you are not in a hurry and do not mind paying shipping costs) this solution beats power-strip solutions costing upwards of $2500.
Like I said last time [let’s hope I do better this time!] I would like to purchase more of these kinds of adapters to determine if, say, a ‘Y’ adapter allows us to plug 2 PCs into another PC and have it ALSO sound much better than the standard audiophile-grade power-strips out there.
