SETTING A NEW STANDARD
"Just finished installing my R1 into a duplex box that feeds a PS
Audio P300

The new 20-amp rated R1 has arrived. It is the newest offering from Oyaide, featuring Palladium plating over PLATINUM (all twice-polished, of course) over a new beryllium copper substrate. With a
touch more warmth and sweetness than the SWO-XXX, it retains all the nuance,
subtlety, and fine detail, offering a new level of refinement
that must be heard. A must
for a high-performance front end, or for feeding one's entire
system via a high-quality line conditioner.

"The
SWO-GX had arrived today, and again, thank you for the prompt
service and shipping.
Even though it'll still be settling-in in the next few days, I must
admit that it sounds quite wonderful, even at this point! In my particular system it has clearly outperformed the Levitons,
Hubbles, or Wattgates. Sonically, it appears to be a superb outlet and is definitely an asset to my quest for the
highest-end audio performance." "There are a number of
tweaks over the years that pleasantly surprised me regarding the
degree of improvement of sound quality, i.e. musical enjoyment, the top of the list being Symposium roller blocks
under the transport. But the Oyaide has shot to the top of the
list! Depth of soundstage and inner
detail greatly improved but most striking was an organic quality you
described (maybe the increased perception of organic quality is a function of perceived soundstage depth and inner
detail). Anyway, I find myself listening longer, which trumps any
kind of mental gymnastics about sound." |

The importance of high quality power
supply connections is now widely accepted. Many enthusiasts install
dedicated power lines for their hi fi systems and no longer question
the importance of the quality of the receptacle fitted to the wall.
Conventional "hospital grade" connectors can improve the strength of
the mechanical connection, but they are far from ideal for realizing
the best sound quality. Our objective was to develop receptacles whose sole purpose was to
deliver the highest sound quality possible. Every part has been
designed with this in mind. Extensive research into the effects of
plating methods has yielded three equally valid but different types
of sound for you to choose from. The entire series is non-magnetic
to avoid any disturbance from magnetic fields.
