You could cut the cord about 5 inches from the amp and attach an IEC male connector on the cord. Then plug in your cable of choice. That would be the easiest way out.
Power cord upgrade/replacement on Denon POA-6600 monoblocks
Hi, everyone!
I recently got my hands on a pair of Denon POA-6600 monoblocks in superb condition. They sound great on my Magnepans, but one thing that bothers me about them is the power cord. It's permanently attached/soldered on, there is no IEC socket. The cord is of "high quality lamp cord" grade. My question is this: has anyone attempted an upgrade of the power cord on one of these (or sister amps, POA-7700, etc) and what was the result? I would be interested in "reversible" modification, i.e. solder an upgraded cord in place of factory one, not cut the metal on the back to install an IEC socket.

I don't plan on selling them, but you never know what might happen in life, so I would lean toward a reversible mod.
