Some have simply cut off the AC cord within 6" of the equipment, then solder on an IEC socket using tape or heat shrink sleeving to insulate any exposed voltage terminals. However a chassis mount is the better approach if that's possible. Hardwiring really limits your ability to tune the rig by trying out different upgrade cords, no two of which sound quite the same.
can i change my hard wired power cord on my amp?
I have a Outlaw 950 pre-amp and it has a detatchable power cord which i upgraded, however my Outlaw 750 amplifier does not have a detatchable power cord!!!! I don't know why the pre amp would have a detatchable and the amp not! Anyway my question is is there a way i can easily remove the hard wired power cord and add a adaptor of some sort to be able to add a aftermarket detatchable cord? Any suggestions would be appreciated!!
