Hi Oscar,
I am very happy for you that this connector combo is working for you. Rhodium plating is relentless when the system has some harshness and it takes 500 hours before it settles. But the stereo picture is organized and
detailed with a lot of punch. The IEGO 8095 is still on my list for the future. I think you are right for this one. But it is so damn expensive.
I still haven't made any changes recently. I am happy with my system at the moment. If I have some money, I want to swap my standard system breaker for a gigawatt G-16 2p and a Doepke earth leakage circuit breaker. Lower contact resistance is always resulting in more grip at the lowest octaves and better micro- and macro dynamics. Power is everything. It can make or break your system. A modest system is sometimes using only 1 or 2 watts. A lot of tiny details can easily get lost (decays, room/hall reverbs) in those 2 watts.
I always read your posts Oscar. It is nice to learn from people especially when they are helping other people.

Hello Judith,
There you are | I was hoping you'd chime in..., as you've seriously allowed me to peak inside your mind | gather insight into one of those subjects it seems many have merely taken for granted. As I recently was talking to a dear friend of mine on the phone, posing the question just how many of us really look closer at the quality of the connectors used on our prices pairs of IC's | SCs | PCs?, not taking into account there have been times while researching items | I've come across $16.000 amps using binding post which retail for $60 per set, and were designed upon mere brass base plate metal.
I've always studied or noticed said littlest of details | call it my anal retentive behavior, but appearances | quality of one's components count, even if one has only been able to stretch their funds and afford a $25.000 system, whereas some with deeper pockets can act snobbish all they want, in my mind they make far more costlier mistakes than use mortals shall ever make, yet for the most part they aren't willing to admit to not having done their homework | souls like many us are just seeking certain tweaks here and there which hopefully enhances our abilities to listen more to the music itself, instead of the equipment | which is where I truthfully believe we've them beat.
As mentioned awhile back | I felt my desire to read and response | write post had reached its end..., yet when I seem to come across something worthy of others fullest attention | I feel duty bound to write about it, as I'm certain some are indeed willing to trust in solid recommendations versus things which doesn't bring about instant ratification.
If something doesn't bring about an urge to dance | laugh | cry | reminisce | look deeper into any given artist or label's complex discography!, something's wrong. At this very moment your prized tandem of rhodium and un-plated copper power connectors offers enough insight into not only the enjoyment of music | yet into my very soul from a purely emotional perspective | think back say 10-20 years ago, and ask myself " why is it that our youth deprives us of learning this type of stuff easily on? ", just imagine how many pieces of gear could've been made to reproduce music in a manner where many of us could've gladly called it a day..., just maybe said wisdom | growth is meant only to be achieved once we've reached a ripe old age, where we then learn to trust our own instincts and not what's written in the audio rags, they're nice places to begins one's journey | not a substitute for one actuality getting out to shops | a friends home and listening to different brands or priced electronics for oneself.
As we reside in a very peaceful neighborhood just east of Detroit, an apartment at that, changing out anything other than AC Receptacles or lighting fixtures | dimmers just aren't going to happen. Which is why I'm focusing on buying into the Entreq Micro Kit GroundBox Kit, my last usb cable in the Xangsane Sterling Silver thingy, and chilling. How does that old adage go?, " if it isn't broken, leave it alone ", that's exactly my mindset of late | wisdom | maturity | reality has taken hold, and there's no desire in my heart for self doubt.
Stay true to the cause | yourself in the seasons to come, I've found you a godsent | thanks again for just being.
Judith,
I meant to add while the set of IeGO 8095s is somewhat costlier than the cost effective makes of Viborg | Monosaudio types..., yet when compared to say the Furutech FI-50 NCF types, it all of a sudden seems a better option.
And in truth, it or they only have to be purchased once | well in my case twice, as I have a spare set laying here, well at least a single 8095 AC Male | 8065 IEC Female, has the 8095 been a Schuko EU type, I would've sold it to you at half price, but as one member of A'Gon has mentioned it being better than the Oyaide P | C 004 range, and having both placed onto a cord used between the ac outlet and a Puritan Audio PSM136 line conditioner, I'd have to agree as said 8095s just offer a better sense of flow | attack | smoothness | refinement to the notes themselves.
In the end, it once again only needs to be purchased once | heard to be believed.
I'll be placing an ad here in a few days, in hopes someone stateside can use them, as hoarding once again, simply isn't how I wish to live life | sharing is more of my nature.
As always..., be well | stay safe.
