Somebody should send me one of these Uberbusses to try out. It's got to be in 240V though. I wouldn't deliver a limp 120 to my system and call it a stereo. Same way i would not stand in front of my wife limp asking to get down and dirty.  :D  :thumb:

This is the kind of power delivery i expect or it gets boxed and sent back. https://vimeo.com/4366695

Also no nickel plated copper to the outlets or anywhere.

Good Talk!

I get it.  Instantaneous and plentiful power with no current limiting other than that inherent in the I/O.

Nickel just sounds bad: thin, edgy and harsh depending upon the resolution of the system.

I chose the P&S 5362A for its mostly brass construction.  They come with steel joining pins in the back.  I pull those and replace them with 6-32x1" brass screws. This leaves the 10-32 neutral crews which I will replace upon request.  One other tweak to the standard receptacle is an option to polish the existing contacts.  All of his makes a killer low cost ($60.00) receptacle.  Cryogenically elated, of course.
