Is that cable on the left legal in your country ?

Here in the UK you cannot use a male to male plug as you can electrocute yourself (or someone else) by touching the pins on the end that isn’t plugged into the wall/power block.

Might be a spot the deliberate mistake. :thinking:

I tried out the Furutech Nano Liquid this week. It worked well, i believe, on my etherent plugs to and from the router. Then i felt daring and aplied it to the Chord Tuned Array Signature Snaic between 282 and Hicap and the Chord Tuned Array Signature cable from Hicap to 250 Dr. Because i always felt that while the Chord cables provided more spatial depth, they had a bit less detail and grunt than the original Snaics. My hope was that by treating the contacts with the Furutech, I could gain some more detail and grunt. Also applied it to the speaker connects into the 250. The sound became stangely out of balance. Like the mids suffered a bit and the lows and highs were emphasized. Cannot really explain it. Now i cleaned everything with 99% Alcohol. Sounds ok again i think. Hope i did not mess up the din sockets. They cannot be cleaned. Puh… Stupid idea in the first place.

Hi All, can i ask for your advice on fitting Furutech plugs on Audioquest cables?

My Audioquest Niagara 3000 is connected to a Furutech Rhodium mains socket with a Audioquest Monsoon. I wonder whether it would be worthwhile to change the Monsoon plug with a Rhodium plug from Furutech. Has anyone done such a manipulation on Audioquest cables? Audioquest claims to have some sort of noise dissipation in place. Sounds complicated to connect to a new plug?

I would avoid that. You will basically have to cut the connector off since it is moulded onto the cable. It will be a big mess.

I would instead evaluate other brands of power cord if you are unhappy with monsoon.

Thanks! Cannot really say i am unhappy with the Monsoon. System sounds very nice. But there is this itch :smile:
Would have been smarter to by cables where the plugs can be changed. I may try an upgrade mains cable some time in the future.

I agree with @Blackbird, the outer sleeving will fray and be difficult to tidy up neatly.
