--- Quote from: dflee on December 16, 2023, 10:14:58 AM ---I purchased the demo Orchard Audio Ultra DMC V1 tour amp at what I consider a decent price. In thinking about upgrading the binding posts took the cover off and started assessing the terrain noticed the posts are connected to the board via slip on. The board male piece and the slip on female look to be the same material and would like to know what that material is? I go to all these extents to try and get the best interconnect and posts yet the slip on just doesn't look like a material I would think of as great quality. Am I knitpickin here? Does that connection mean that much overall? Is there a better slip on than generic? Would a solid copper, gold plated binding post be better than the brass in this situation?
Thanks guys

I don't think you are nit picking Don. I have seen/heard just one part make or break a system.
If one goes from brass to "copper", from rhodium to "copper", or added 12pf across a 47ufd poly capacitor,
and clearly heard a sonic difference.
Just my thoughts

Not a fan of most commercial binding posts. Here are the ones that I prefer:

The Faston terminals on the amp are tin plated brass. The binding posts you ordered are copper. The connectors that you ordered are directly plated gold on copper. Hook them up and hear. That is the only way to know.
Basically, what Steve said! :thumb:

What nice quality on the ETI, especially the silver plating over tellurium copper and cryoed as well. I really appreciate companies that make quality products….
