*Say Goodbye to Poor Design and Cheap Parts
The trouble with the most common outlets in most homes is poor design and cheap parts, explains Pangea Audio Design Engineer, Jay Victor. They are made from a cheap plastic thats a poor insulator and from thin, low-grade metals. Hold one of these outlets in your hand. Theyre flimsy. I designed the new Pangea Audio outlets from the ground up [pun intended!] to be superior in every way to standard outlets to make sure you get the best performance possible from your sensitive electronics.
In our top-of-the-line Premier XL outlet, I take the design another leap forward with gold-plated beryllium copper contacts, reports Jay. Beryllium copper is an advanced copper alloy made by combining raw copper with beryllium, creating a metal thats a superior conductor compared to standard copper. Beryllium copper is very expensive, which is why youll only find this copper in the most advanced, state of the art electronics in the aerospace and computer industries. This is one of the very few outlets in the world to use this exotic beryllium copper and its the only one I know of thats priced under $100.
The extra-thick beryllium copper contacts firmly grip male AC plug prongs without letting go, said Jay. The transparent face lets you look inside and see the impressive gripping strength of the gold-plated contacts. As you can see, we have nothing to hide. Premier XL also features a distinctive green outlet cover.
Versatile 15-Amp/20-Amp Design
Its a 20-amp outlet design, Jay continued. Overkill, again, in some cases, I admit but the outlet works perfectly with either 15-amp or 20-amp AC plugs. So Premier provides that extra versatility, too.
Receptacle Mounting Bracket
Speaking of pet peeves, Jay continued. Take a look at the flimsy mounting bracket most outlets feature to bolt the outlet to the wall box. I couldnt bear to have any of my outlets insecure, so I included a very thick metal mounting bracket instead. Nothings going to shake this outlet loose from the wall, Jay told us, except maybe an earthquake.
