RE: Okay, legitimate questions

The quality of the connections is quite important. I noticed that on speaker cables a while back and it made me a fanatic on making sure I have good contact over the whole path. It's a long story, as to how I found this out, but the difference was remarkable in a careful A-B test.

I can easily see how this would work for line cords and the in-wall power wiring.

One wonders how much of the improvement in power cords is due to the better terminations, and not to the wiring itself.

On that note, why would you replace hard wired cords with an IEC connector with an extra set of friction contacts?
