AQ Power cables- Space considerations in audio cabinet

@tomic601 - thanks for the suggestion tomic. I see how it could benefit my situation but drilling holes in the back panel is something I don't want too to do to my panels. Thanks for your suggestion. Much appreciated.

@gdnrbob- right angle adapters may be possible for the bottom receptacles in my power conditioner but using a 90 degree adapter for the receptacles on top won't work for my application. I figure those would require like a 6 inch extension power cable cord as it flexible enough to overhang over the edge of the shelf.  My next idea is to buy a separate smaller Furman power and plug my power amps and preamp into the power strip however I am concerned may not be able to handle the 4 power amps and a preamp . Just a thought. Thanks for your suggestions as well. I will contact Audioquest as well. Thanks gdnrbob.

In my experience, using a low gauge consumer grade extension cord before my audiophile grade power cord degraded the sound noticeably. 

@docknow- @docknow- sorry to hear about the sound degradation. This was before your audiophile grade cable correct? How did you remedy the situation? Did you get a higher grade extension power cord? 
In my case the power cable male end would be plugged into the female end and the male end of the power cable extension would be plugged into my power conditioner.

Alasdair at Audioquest said "the amount of compromise would be quite small and will in no way take anything away from the benefit of having an AQ power cable in your system". I can try one and see how it works. Can't hurt right?

@2007audioman ,
Like I wrote, using a right angle connector-which is metal to metal, and not an extension cord should make little difference.
And,
You just reminded me that I bought a connector that extended about 6 inches from the power input of my Ayre Codex. I needed it to clear one of the other inputs (optical?). Let me see if I can find it....
It is a shame that we have to resort to such arcane solutions.

@gdnrbob,

I checked the back of my power conditioner and there is approx. 2.25 inches of space so a 6 inch extension cord would be perfect to connect the power cables too or 8 inches would be good as well. I just need the power cables to clear the fan assembly that are installed on the back inside the panel. If you find your extension cord I would like to have a look at it if you want to pm me. Thanks gdnrbob.
