RE: IME, there are MUCH better applications for Furutech plugs...

My suggestion was based on a lower-cost level option. Sure, there are other power cords that I prefer, but they are more expensive than the $200 maximum price the OP indicated for what I assume is a commercially terminated power cord. A DIY Flavor 3 terminated with Furutech FI-11M(Cu) AC plug and Furutech FI-11(Ag) IEC connector served very well when placed on a digital processor in my computer workstation system, but a DIY Acrolink 7N-P4020III power cable with the same Furutech AC connectors has surpassed it. However, the parts alone for a DIY Acrolink 7N-P4020III with the same Furutech connectors retails for $259, so a commercially terminated version would cost well over $300. I still use the Flavor 2 cable to feed two power line conditioners in my computer workstation system; one is terminated with Oyaide 079 AC connectors for the audio gear, the other one is terminated with the Furutech FI-11M(Cu) AC plug and Furutech FI-11(Ag) IEC connector for the computer and computer peripherals. In further defense of the Flavor power cords, I find a DIY Flavor 4 terminated with Oyaide 004 Beryllium AC connectors to be an excellent option for a DIY subwoofer power cord build. I gladly use that power cord in my main audio system along with much more expensive power cords, and foresee no reason to replace it with another. YMMV
