Power cords different lengths.

Would it be ok to use to different lengths for power cords. I recently bought an AQ Dragon HC 2 m pc for ARC REF 750. The dedicated outlet is about 1 3/4 m away from my amp. The other ARC REF 750  dedicated outlet is about 1 m away.  I would also save a few grand buying the 1m for the second amp. Would I loose anything as far as sonics or anything else by going with 2 different lengths for my amps ? Ty.

I do have one of the newer Dragons (unbraided) source and one of the older type (braided) source and I have not noticed any difference in the 2 styles in sound quality.

No, IMHO it doesn't matter.

I own the Dragon power cords and one is 1 meter, and the other is 2 meters, for the exact reason you asked because of my mono block's location's. Also, the cords are quite massive and will be difficult to coil any excess.

I have never noticed ANY type of difference. Of course, this is with my system, my room, and my ears. Perhaps within ghprentice situation he may be right, but again, I have never noticed a difference. Interconnects, speaker cables, yes, the length should be the same.

They are great power cords. I also have them plugged into a Niagara 7000.
