Some Cables Thoughts


Working on those cable suggestions you all have offered up to me in the past. I was wondering if any of you might know of a decent grade 110V power cord that has a 90-degree male connector on it? Something like this:

If not, a super flexible cable something similar the stock one that came with my Coda amp, that can turn downward asap and not to long of a connector itself, some are supe long. I need to get tight to the back wall.

As fair as speaker cables, I was thinking of a pair of these, 6 feet long with spade ends.

Do I have your blessings?

PS: No one speaks much here about XLO cables. There are these on USAM - 6ft for $600 DIY terminations, I’d just use bare wire (if I could figure it out (lol)

There is another set there as well with bananas for $800, but I prefer spade.

Thank you!

I’m using Audience Forte F3 on my Pass monoblocks. They’re good 10 gauge power cords. Check partsconnexion for these. They may be running a special and you can save a few bucks. 

@audphile1 I stuck with the Audio Envy 2’ power cord for the amp because I got both male and female male, in the 90° figuration. That will allow me to get the amp close-up to the wall.

I looked at the Audience Forte F3 and there are a great price as you suggested, but they’re a little bit long and I don’t think for the music server, DAC, preamp, need such a heavy duty cord. The F3s are 10 AWG. I’m thinking  probably a good 14 AWG cord would be sufficient for these pieces, so still on the hunt!  
DH Labs Has a decent lineup of recently priced power cords,
