Oyaide IEC's

Oyaide IEC plugs. The Oyaide's, in the short time that they have been available here in the US, have extablished themselves as the premiere brand of "audio grade" AC ends.

4 different versions are available, that each sound slightly different. All the plated IEC's start with a base of deoxidized Phosphor Bronze, which is then highly polished, twice, to which the plating is then applied, which is then polished twice. which is then polished twice. Detailed construction info on all of the plugs can be found here: Click Me! And the advantages of Oyaide connectors can be found here: Advantages!

• C-004. Beryllium Base. Palladium over twice polished Beryllium, then topped off with Platinum over the twice polished Palladium.
  

• C-046. Gold/Palladium. Gold (1.5 microns) over twice polished Bronze, the topped off with Palladium (.3 micron) over the twice polished Gold. Gold/Palladium, the C-046 (orange body). The ultimate in transparency. If your system is very revealing, but at the same time *very* neutral, these are the plugs for you.
  

• C-079--highly polished Bronze with a 2.0 micron plating of direct 24k Gold. We prefer the Gold plated version with solid state, the C-079 (red body), which is very detailed with a just a tiny hint of warmth.
  

• C-037--.3 micron of Rhodium over 1.5 micron of Silver, twice polished. With tubes, the C-037 (blue body), is the ticket! Can sound slightly tipped up in systems that lean that way.

Oyaide M1 male AC plug. This plug uses the same contacts as the P-004, but has a much more beefy and inert shell.

As you can see from the above pictures, Oyaide has gone to heroic efforts to minimize vibrational influence on the plug. We think they have done a stellar job.

We try to keep at least one set of these in stock, however, please check with us before ordering for stock status.

$295/each, deep cryogenically treated.
