Replacing AC cable on older amps and pre amps (Non IEC)

@wolf_garcia If you select the 10 gauge variant, the price goes up!

OP. Just make sure the new cable isn’t too thick for the small hole of older amps.
And make sure it is:
1. Not solid core.
2. Mains rated.
3. Grounded

also is your poeer amp also on the Ricard Grey or just the small stuff ?

noromance (really? none?)…anyway, I'm way into inexpensive well made stuff…actually I revel in that sort of thing, and I might actually buy one of those cables if only because they look pretty cool. Also, I've replaced AC cables in old guitar amps here and there as I hate being electrocuted (note also that you can't have electrocuted without "cute") and it's always worth it.

I've also been considering to replace the power cord on my vintage McIntosh amplifier but I don't see how it could be done without doing some surgery on the chassis and some disassembly of the unit. I'm looking for someone locally to do the conversion by installing a true IEC plug. Might affect the resale value but that's not a big consideration for me.

@wolf_garcia I was amazed at the improvement I got on my preamp by the switch to this over the supplied cord. Beats me why manufacturer doesn't supply it with these.
