Extension cord advice


I am trying to find an extension cord solution for both my turntable and phono preamp. I am using a Furman that is unwieldy and my wife hates. Wondering if there's a good option with a smaller footprint, or whether an ordinary multi-input extension cord from Home Depot would be acceptable. Please advise!

Here are the only advantages over an extension cord.

6 outlets that are circuit breaker protected and EMI/RFI noise attenuation.

I am not super concerned about surge protection -- is there much benefit to noise attenuation given that I'm not using a true conditioner?

It all depends on if you can hear it or not. Try plugging the turntable & phono preamp into an extension cord only and see if you can detect additional noise. Depending on the design & quality of your preamp, it might be dead quiet with either. If you don't hear a difference, you have your answer.
