Competitive with what?

They are having some production issues, not sure exactly what the details are.

bazelio's link is to a white plastic cover. I'm a big fan of the set, GTX NCF + wall plate + cover, I'd use a stainless steel cover available at any hardware store until the Furutech cover is back.

I just noticed Synergistic is making them now using their UEF technology for $149.

I’ve tried all the high end wall plates, including the Furutech, Acoustic Revive and Oyaide, but, by far, the Audio Replas IMO is the best, though, unfortunately, the most expensive. It’s a superb piece massively constructed and weighing 4 lbs.

Looks like Furutech stopped using the elastomer composite material and went to a stainless steel baseplate.
