A 20-amp power cord must have 20-amp rated connectors on both sides along with #12 or larger conductors.
If you have a cord that has #12 or larger conductors (or multiple conductors totaling over 12awg in area) but 15-amp connectors on either or both sides, it is still a 15-amp cord. Manufacturers usually call that a "high current" or "amplifier" cord but they cannot call it a 20-amp cord.
If your equipment -- like most equipment -- has a 15-amp connector (C-14 receptacle) then you cannot use a listed 20-amp cord because it will not fit.
The power cord will not affect the power consumption or current draw of the amplifier. Your amplifier's fuse will limit the current well below the 80% listed amp threshold for the power cord.
