Wall Socket for Hifi System

Audio Grade Wall Socket from Sine, made in HK, RM340, and about 3% improvement


Consumer Grade Wall Socket from MK, made in UK, RM12, and about 2% improvement


Will you pay for this 1% premier with RM228 difference for your Hifi system? I will not!

I was trying to get a good quality of MK (the UK well-known manufacturer of electrical accessory products) wall socket, the Malaysia-made MK costs RM4 from a MK stockist in SS2. However, the boss offered me a UK-made MK, which is more solid made and heavier. The copper used for making its conductor/bridge is more thicker as well. Besides, it provides the double earth facility. This is rare model available in Malaysia nowadays.

Believe it or not, the sound quality has improved significantly after the installation! The details of note has been refined by the quieter background. I can hear the differences of treble, bass and midrange produced, as they are brighter, tighter and smoother respectively.

THE POWER IS SOURCE!

The Analog Interconnect of Audioquest

It's always been my dream to have a high-end interconnect of Audioquest since I've owned my lovely Hifi set. Looking at the best analog interconnect with Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) and without DIELECTRIC-BIAS SYSTEM (DBS) is King Cobra. However, it is just a way too expensive for me, costing USD200++ (0.75 meter, via Internet) or RM1200 (1 meter, via local dealer). I am enthusing in Hifi, but not crazy. Therefore, the second choice is its little brother, Diamondback, identical to King Cobra, except the conductor is Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC). It will still cost me a lot, about RM700 (1 meter), nevertheless.

Luckily, I've found an excellent offer of King Cobra from the Internet used market. The seller offered me a discount and posted the complete package as original set he bought from US to me from JB, what a wonderful deal I'd have with him! The final price is RM380 (0.75meter).

I can't believe the angel's sound from my Hifi system after I've plugged it in. The harsh sound of treble and bass is removed, the midrange is rather restrained, and the unnoticed details are delivered. Overall, the resulting sound quality is even more focused, clean and natural. I have an eagerly awaited announcement for my wife!

THE SIGNAL IS KING!

Still sourcing a good and affordable CD Player and a entry-level power cord of Shunyata Research (most probably Venom). By the way, I realise a mid-end CD Player could be performed much better than a low-end SACD Player after a couple of audition.

我要作个乖宝宝

五月八日至五月十二日， 老婆她和家人去新山和新加坡旅行。 她交待我收衣服和替小花小草浇水，也要照顾好自己的饮食。我都乖乖的照做了。

五月十日，和浩伦与小云吃了一顿seafood大餐。小云很开心，因为她第一次吃那么大只的螃蟹。跟着我们就上了云顶。在CoffeeBean，浩伦与小云很享受那天大风大雾的浪漫天气。他们可能会觉得少了我这一个大灯泡会更好吧？ :-) 可是最后，故事结束得很不美，因为我们每人各自输了50大元。
