RE: Impressions of the Furutech GTX-D(R) Outlet (non-NCF version)

The stock outlet for the Maestro is apparently made by Cooper. There's no marking anywhere on the outlet indicating the manufacturer, but in molded print around the center screw hole is "Screw-Catch" with a trademark symbol. That trademark is owned by Cooper. It's a spec grade outlet, with Made in China stamped into the backstrap. The backstrap itself is POS (ie: plain old steel), ferrous, and probably 20 gauge (maybe 18).

I bought the Furutech without any burn-in services, but let it cook on the Audiodharma cooker for a week before installing it. Long enough? I don't know....we'll see. And no argument whatsoever on the build quality of the Furutech. It was almost a shame to stuff it in the wall as much of a work of art that it is. :)
