Best 20A IEC power cord

Mr Chips, is it not possible that rch10 was simply basing his statements on a comparison between a standard 15 amp version of the Pure Note Epsilon against the BMI Whale ? As such, isn't it possible that rch10 made a logical deduction that the 20A version would perform in similar fashion ?

Don't get me wrong, i am not voicing my support or blasting either cord. I'm simply trying to point out that clarity of vision or logic sometimes go out the window when emotion is involved. Sean

Ozfly, my PERSONAL opinion is that any cord with a MINIMUM gauge of 12 gauge can be used for 20 amp service. The only "conditions" that i put on that statement is that the connections on the cord are extremely solid and the cord is of reasonable length. I would rather have a cord that is 10 gauge or heavier if running something longer than about 4' or so. 8 gauge would be even better. You can get away with less though due to the fact that most music is of a dynamic nature and the power demands are typically not of a continuous nature. This is quite the contrary to what most electricians will tell you though. Sean
