Short runs of flexible power cord?

I just spent $ 200 (mostly for shipping) to have my Jolida 302B repaired: the IEC was damaged due to the torque from the heavy Transparent power cord. It's admittedly too long but also incredibly stiff. I could really use some help here. Are there companies that make flexible power cables in shorter (less than 1 M) runs, that sound good??????

I've been dressing power cords since the day they got big.

Mapleshade has some very flexible power cords. They can custom make a short run as well.

I bought two 3' Audience PowerChords on Audiogon during the past year.

Power cords are simple to make and simple to resize. Unless yours has a sophisticated molded end you should be able to cut to size a re-terminate. In less than one meter I doubt you will hear any difference in any cable you buy as long as it meet the specs for current delivery and EMI/RFI rejection.

I choose to use a support as mentioned above by several others,(nylon tether).

Your amp has a small power draw. It's not like those big power hungry amps. Maybe try a lighter gauge cord.
