Get one of those dremmel tools, cut a hole for the IEC and get a good power cord. It'll be a a nice improvement over the stock cord. If you have the cash I would but a new amp.
Power Cord; upgrade vs tweak
I have a no-name tube amplifier in my bedroom for music listening(it is black, has 4 tubes, rated at 30 watts and actually has no name on it that I can find). I bought this amp at a garage sale and all the info I get from it is written on the case. A friend of mine guesses that amp brand new was probably about 400 dollars, if that much.
It has an unremovable, molded power cord. I have never tried power cords before and I thought it would be a good test to see exactly what a after-market power cord can do.
My question is; would it be better to upgrade to a better amp with a removable power cord or tweak the amp I have and get a removeable power IEC setup?
When can someone tell when to choose an upgrade over a tweak? Is it just money?
