Flush wall plug for power cables?

I just had a new custom audio cabinet built. However the new cabinet is longer and covers the dedicated wall outlet for my system. When i plug the stiff power cords in the outlet I cannot shove the cabinet close enough to the wall for my liking. I could plug the cables into a power strip inside the cabinet but I’d like to use the dedicated outlet for my amp and dac, if it makes a difference? I don’t know for sure.
My question is, is there a company that makes a decent power cord with a flush angled wall plug? I’ve searched and cannot find any.
Thanks

If you want to do your own ends for tight clearance.

Perfect. Thank you. I’ve never done it but I’ll give it a go.

jb505,  it is not too difficult a task if the current cord has a non-molded plug end.  The plug will disassemble fairly easy leaving the hot, neutral and ground wires pre-stripped and ready to go back into the new plug.  If it’s a molded plug then you have a bit more prep work to do after cutting off the end, but still not high on the diy difficulty scale.  Several good YouTube videos to watch to get you acclimated to the job.  It looks like you are in the Sacramento area?  I’m sure someone from here that is close by and proficient would offer to assist should you want to go that route.  Heck, if you were near Philly I would gladly do it for free.
Wishing you success on your project

Thank you bry. Actually my friend, unbeknownst to me has made his own cables and offered to help me out. So we’ll tackle this next weekend. He says it shouldn’t take long.However, I did buy one of the adapters from Voodoo recommended by two left ears.
