RE: Pinging Duster

The Furutech FI-11M(Cu) AC plug is worthy of being considered a nominally reference-quality AC plug, since its sonic signature is dead-neutral, with excellent clarity, perhaps sometimes too lean sounding depending on particular IEC connectors that are matched with the copper FI-11M(Cu) AC plug.

The silver plated FI-11(Ag) IEC connector can sound a bit "hi-fi-ish" with minimal tonal bloom, and make the copper FI-11M(Cu) AC plug sound a bit uninvolving vs. various AC connectors with special metal plating methods and materials. Gold plated Furutech AC connectors tend to provide more musical-sounding tonal bloom which is very compatible with the Furutech FI-11M(Cu) AC plug.

Be careful to mate the Furutech FI-11M(Cu) AC plug with an Audio Grade AC outlet that provides a desirable sonic signature. The FI-11M(Cu) is compatible with any AC outlet I've tried with it. Since the sonic signature is dead-neutral, the sonic signature of the IEC connector and AC outlet closely associated with it tend to impart a more definitive sonic signature of their own. It all boils down to customized system tuning efforts, based on subjective aesthetics.
