MS HD Power 'The Blue' 13A UK Plug Rhodium - MS328RKK
The Blue premium range of high-quality UK 13A 3 pin plugs have been designed to be used with high-quality audio equipment for optimum power transmission and sound quality. All the electrical parts (plug pins, fuse and all other internal conductive parts) are made from premium quality copper and electroplated with 3um x Rhodium plating; the Fuse Clips are made of high spring rate Phosphor Bronze, again with 3.0µm x Rhodium plating - and supplied with a 13A silver plated fuse, fitted. All these conductive parts including the fuse undergo a deep cryogenic treatment in the UK specifically designed for audio components. This cold annealing process seems to increase the material conductivity. Every plug is supplied with a certificate stating that components have been cryogenically treated in the UK.
The heavy-duty mains wire-clamps design ensure an airtight connection to ensure perfect power transmission and also protect the power cable wires from damage over time (inferior plugs secure the cables by the grub screws twisting down onto the cable directly and are prone to material 'creep'). The plug will accept wires up to 4mm diameter - and clamp a cable of up to 16mm overall diameter. The plug casing is manufactured from blue colour semi-transparent nylon material, offering durability, high insulation and lightweight.
Audio listening trials have been undertaken to assess the impact different materials and 'colours' have on this plug design casing, re. audio performance. It was found that black cases offer slightly less dynamics and clarity. The tests were all tried using a very high-end audio system where the sound qualities could be readily heard in A/B comparisons. There is no firm technical explanation for this, but it is suggested that the carbon powder used to manufacture black colour plastic is acting as a slightly capacitive or inductive element between the plug pins. Using a blue dye in the plastic material had no detrimental effect v. clear plastic, and the blue semi-transparent finish was considered both attractive and translucent enough to partially hide the internal wire connections.

Outstanding UK audiophile plug probably the ultimate
Raf

I bought this in December 2021, but it was misplaced, so I couldn’t install it until now when it was found in the store cupboard.
Installed it on a Nanotec 309 cable with Oyaide C004 IEC and Synergistic Purple fuse. Initial impression, very bright but very fast and constricted bass. Perseverance and patience - after six days, it is a completely different sound, huge dynamics, extension at both ends, holographic image, just outstanding.
I have UK plugs much more expensive than this UK plug that are considered to be the end game, but now I think this is as good if not better than the best other plugs because it replaced one of them, also rhodium. It is not the same as the standard MS HD rhodium plug; this is in a different league.
It is being used from a wall socket to a Bryston 4B3 power amp. Hard to fathom how a mains plug could have such a massive impact on sound quality. No other UK plug, including the other ones, regardless of price, has had such an impact. A minimum of 100 hours of use is required to understand its potential, and it is improving every day.
