Mcintosh amp stock pwr cord only 4 ft???


This is absurd. Why do they do this?

so now i need new longer power cords. Any idea without spending hundreds on new 8 or 10 ft cords.

OP that's a stock PC? I think all my preamps from Mac were 3 or 4 feet.

Power amps the same.. Heavy Copper.. Nothing fancy they work just fine at least mine do. I have tried a few fancy PC on my Macs over the last 30 years, LOL. Kind of a waste of good money.. Cary tube power amps, a whole different story.. You better take a little time and pick a good PC.

Might only be me but aside from the power cord that came with my Blue Circle BC6000 power conditioner none of the other audio components I have purchased came with anything other than 1M power cords .And, those stayed in the box and were replaced by better power cords. Based upon most of your threads you might be better off research/finding some small "boutique" type shops that can build you custom equipment to your exact specs and save yourself the constant angst.

The shorter the power cord the better. If you need longer, make sure it's super heavy duty with high grade connectors. Good luck.

Get a Pangea with a coupler to the stock cord. Will not affect the SQ of the amp!
