How about repeating the experiment and reporting after significant burn in time? They may indeed change quite a bit - usually do.As you know, I'm very pleased with my Furutech copper 15A over the previous P&S tweaked outlets. So far the Furutech is my standard to beat, but at twice the price those Oyaides have to really deliver a lot more for the money.
Your system, for those who don't know, is very revealing. Not clinical, just quite nuanced. So what you're able to attain is significant with such an easy upgrade.
I'm working off a less revealing box setup - the VR1s and a cheap sub to augment them a little. Nothing near your monoblocks nor the Wadia, much less the Maggies. But beyond the source and amp, I'm wondering how the boxes vs. the planars impact impressions of tonal results, not just the nuances of detail.
One other difference for me is that I listen to quite a bit of FM radio, which I know that you don't. So there's no way to compare how these outlets might impact that kind of source, is there?
