one word for you, Oyaide!

Bart, I know you do a lot on a pretty tight budget. I admire that. I am starting to think that perhaps the most important fundamental item for even a budget system is to have at least one cryo treated Oyaide outlet. This may seem a bit out of balance at first glance but in what other component can the difference between the very best and the very cheapest be about a hundred bucks? Other than a dedicated line, which most real budget systems are not going to have, the sound starts right there. The gold plated Oyaide SWO-GX that I've been using seems like a must have item for everyone. There is something very special going on here. I have heard the palladium plating on their AC male end, the P-046, and although it is amazing, I think that the palladium along with the rhodium plating may not match up with gear in a budget catagory. I can't see the gold version doing anything that would show off faults in anyones gear. I think it's a great value at $100 even on budget.
