Oyaide Tunami GPX-R: Two for One


I have taken a 2 meter Oyaide Tunami GPX-R Powercord and cut it in two pieces(crazy you say). Ya' like a fox.I took the Tunami GPX-R plug end with the Oyaide P-004 plug and connected it to a Porter-Port 20 Amp outlet that I bought hear on Audiogon years ago,(before outlets were cool).It is housed in a non-magnetic metal-type box that you can buy at the local home improvement store. Yes both ground and drain wires are connected. It works wonders on digital equipment.The other 4ft plus piece with the Oyaide C-004 IEC end was connected to another Oyaide P-004 plug I bought hear on Audiogon as well. However I have the ground cable and bare cooper drain wire removed (floating) on the IEC end. Both ground and drain cables are connected at the Oyaide P-004 plug end. Plugged into my Power amp it is much more open, airey, and dynamic. Has anyone else tried a two for one with the Oyaide Tunami GPX-R Powercord? Or any other Powercord for that matter.

At least you have dedicated lines. I live in a rental home with the original lines put in by the contractor when they built the house 17 years ago.
It's a synergistic thing. Apparently our systems like to see that nice extra cord before they see the cheap wall wiring. (O:
I did the same thing on a 2M Neotech power cord that I built from VH Audio. I used one piece on a power outlet box for my bedroom system and made another one for my dad's system. Great sound and very cost-effective, especially in these tough economic times. The Wattgate 330i AC plug is a very nice complement to UPOCC copper cords.
