Well, best I can recollect, I got more detail and better separation and imaging. It was immediately and continues to be consistently apparent with my FM source. It was less so with my CDP, but still better right off the bat.

As with every outlet I've worked with so far, bass comes in better as they break in, but I must say that the Furu bass was lacking nothing right out of the box! HF was the most immediately noticeable improvement.

This was after replacing the main outlet at my wall. Old outlet was a well-broken-in P&S 5262 that was tweaked. All of my other outlets are still P&S tweaked; haven't had the bucks nor time to replace them all with Furus. After my first Furu I was ready to replace them all right away were there the funds; I'm only awaiting more info on the new Oyaides and some cash to go ahead further.

My collection of plugs runs from P&S to Marinco/Wattgate, most not cryoed, BTW. So I'm not even getting the synergy that I might had I replaced plugs with Furus.

Please note that I run a number of AC filters and RFI controls, all DIYed. I also DIY my PCs of various designs and materials. That does undoubtedly permit my midfi system to show off any changes in AC that the outlet brings, so YMMV.
