Thinking about replacing an Oyaide I have that has lost its grip.
Thoughts?
Yes. I use one of the outlets in question and it works extremely well.
Good Luck
Jerry
Yes I have some, but find their new Cuppercon outlets far superior

Four or five years ago, I replaced several Oyaide R1 outlets with Shunyata model you mention. I think the Shunyata outlets are more dynamic than the Oyaide. The latter sounded soft and "toobey" to me. Kind of like putting a tube amp on a tough-to-drive speaker, and you get a nice midrange when girls sing, but don't get the dynamic snap of real instruments (and there is nothing wrong with the midrange using Shunyata outlets). YMMV!!!
Hi
I would like to learn more about theses copper outlets as well.
Thanks

Unluess I am reading the thread incorrectly, it appears that Shunyata are selling a different product from the SR-Z1.....namely a product called Coppercon! Am I misunderstanding?Thanks Caesar!

Jerry, my read is that the SR-Z1s are available for purchase as separate items but that CopperConn are only included in the device itself.
Hopefully GrantS will weigh in. Maybe they are planning to sell the CopperConn separately.
Hi,
It's possible we will sell the CopperConn outlets and connectors as OEM items or commercially in the future, but for now we appreciate having a unique in-house advantage in parts and materials over more common offerings. I cannot say with certainty when these items may be available. It is a topic we cover frequently in house, so I will keep everyone informed. One certainty is that the outlets will cost more than your average outlet. The CopperConn outlets and AC connectors are made from solid Tellurian copper and not simply plated with an ultra-thin layer of precious-metal over brass. There is a substantive difference given that the core of an outlet's metallurgy is more relevant to peak current transfer than a thin plate of metal over common brass.
We will make an announcement if Caelin decides to release the CopperConn connectors and outlets commercially.
Thank you for the inquiry.
Best regards,
Grant
