My new circuit breaker cabinet.

The black line of circuit breakers is dedicated to audio, and is isolated from the rest


  • 1x Doepke DFS4 63A / 0,03A Differential circuit breaker
  • 4x GigaWatt G-16A 2P
  • 4 strands of In-Wall Cable GigaWatt LC-Y EVO 3X4
Each GigaWatt circuit breaker is connected to a Furutech socket (FT-SWS-D NCF - R) via one strand of thick GigaWatt cable.

This way each HiFi element has its own power outlet and its own circuit breaker.

I pushed things to the limit. Even the wiring of the circuit breakers is of audio quality.

I have experience in the retermination of the first Valhalla and Odin. These cables sounded better with the Oyaide F1/M1, but not with the Furutech-50. I changed Furu to NCF and the result was not impressive. Although the bass beat is bigger with NCF, but they lack musicality and air.
I believe the first version Valhalla power cords came with Wattgate which are just relabeled Marinco plugs.

I just bought a beautiful sounding vertex aq silver roraima power cord and replaced the wattgate plugs with Oyaide M1/F1.

Oyaide M1/F1 all the way.
