Anyone with Manley Chinook use a custom Power Cord?


Does anyone have experience using a different power cord with a Manley Chinook other than the one supplied from Manley?  If yes, what was your experience with it?  Did it really make a difference?

@soundermn ,

The cost of that fuse was a major hurdle I personally had to overcome. In the end, it was a great move. The Cable Company has a great sale every now and then...buy the outlet, get the fuse free. Myself...I’m waiting on it one more time.

We have to overcome, as humans, the effect of some products having a great effect/while being small/simple verses the cost. Once you experience it....you’ll understand.
That may be more than the normal user may want to undertake. The Synergistic upgrades are solid and (for real). 

This requires no revisions that will void a warranty.
Although I haven’t tried a cord with the Chinook, IMO, your best bet would be to install a Synergistic Blue fuse. This will definitely give you bang for the buck compared to any PC out there. Then get the Blue outlet!

Still, if you're looking for a heck-of-a-bargain in a power cord, try the latest Signal Cable silver alloy. At $169 shipped (mine had a 20amp IEC on it), it may be the best deal going. It replaced my long time Shunyata Python Alpha Helix 20 amp feeding my Hydra. Increase in transparency with no negatives at all. I think the Python retailed for $1k.
