What exactly is this saying? Is it NOT designed to be used with the GTX Wall Plate? The quote seems to say that improved sonic performance is obtained by not placing the 105-D on the wall plate. What is the included Teflon Sheet supposed to be used for?

I'm thinking of ordering the wall plates but unclear with how they are best designed to be installed - with or without wall plates and with or without a teflon sheet.
That quote from Furutech sure seems to contradict itself.
I have the wall plate and 105-D NCF cover and intend to use them together. I just may not use the Teflon sheet. Curious what Ivan's take on this is. He sold several packages together (105-D NFC + GTX Wall Plate + GTX-D NCF Receptacle) last year and that's how I'm going to be installing mine (this weekend FINALLY).
