Why do designers/manufacturers...?


If audiophile grade feet, power cords, and fuses can really improve SQ, why don't high end designers/manufacturers just incorporate these audiophile grade components at the time of build? Why sell an under-optimized item that can be easily improved upon by the owner or a modder?

why is it " illegal to use solid core wire in an AC power cord"? Is there a fire/heat hazard? Does that mean only that a pc must have multiple strands of wire? What exactly is "solid core wire?" Isn't all wire "solid" in a sense?

I have always wondered about all that stuff - wall socket, plug, wire, another plug, amp input socket - between the romex in the wall and the amp. Is there no way around the fire code?
