What High End AC Cables should Offer

90 degree plugs. 

90 Degree plugs are the answer to many problems with excessively large and heavy cables. 

Here's a 90 degree plug from Leviton as an example.  I'm not saying that you should hack your $3,000 Furutech cable, but that we should start asking manufacturers to offer 90 degree plug options.  Not only do they make it less likely to leverage a plug out of the socket (i.e. sag) but also huge space savers.   I can put my bass traps right up against one of these, no problem.  Can't do it at all with even a modest straight angle plug.

@carlsbad2  I finally found the specs on the Leviton, maximum size is 0.7" thick, which is the same as the Furutech model I posted above.

That Furutech on parts connexion is identical to the Aliexpress ones I bought for $20 each.

I stated that it was a knock off, I am under no illusion,  but who cares. It works great, that's all that matters. Do you think the high prices you pay makes things anymore real.
