Another excellent choice is the Marinco 5266 or 8215 plug, very easy to install and a very secure method of securing the cable ends inside the plug.
Shorten those lengthy power cords?
Can you simply cut your existing components AC
power cords to the proper length. Then install
similar or even better AC connector? I must average
3' or 4' extra cable per component, that times five
units equals alot of extra cable to conseal.
Anyone doing this? Or am I asking for trouble?
If so, connector suggestions.
Thanks for any insights

The Bob Crump designed 'Asylum' DIY power cord is made with Belden 19364. I've used it for exactly the reason you describe, to make cables that reach my components without having a lot of unnecessary clutter to hide. The 19364 with Marinco plugs is very easy to put together, affordable and has worked very well for me. |
