Power cord for Sony DVD7700

Has anyone tried putting an IEC connector on the Sony DVD7700? I did so I could attach a Synergistic Research power cord. Seems to be a lot more revealing sound. Never understood wht Sony does not provide a detachable power cord on this fine DVD player!

Gfroman and Johnwowen, I have made the Mod and it works like a charm. I was able to attach the IEC connector to the back of the chasis and it looks factory. I have not had a chance to play with some different cords yet but at any rate I now have that option. For the 2 hours labor and .97 for the IEC connector I can't go wrong. I have taken some Digital Pictures and will be happy to share them with you. E-mail wfncp@mindspring.com and I will forward the pictures. Thanks for the info on the procedure.

Way to go, Goose! Welcome to the club!! With all the tweakers out there, you would have thought others would have tried this by now. Gregg

Vans Evers makes an adapter for DVD players that lets you use any PC cord. This is a much easier solution than opening up/soldering, etc. the interior PC wire. Call Mike direct in Tampa, FL (# 813 / 239-0700) for more info. PS: Try the ElectraGlide PC's on the Sony for a step up!
