RE: Oyaide knock-offs?

You might consider the even lesser priced (although not cryo'd) polycarbonate shelled Valab AC plug and IEC connector that are different designs than the Oyaide knock-offs. I think they feature the same body as the more expensive aluminum shelled Valab AC connectors that I use for my digital front end:

Also to consider:

Here's a good sounding inexpensive Swedish-made Supra LoRad 2.5 bulk length power cord product to terminate with the inexpensive Valab AC connectors:

Example: A 5 foot (1.5 meter) DIY Supra LoRad 2.5 power cord terminated with the polycarbonate shell Valab AC connector is only $53.50.
