Who needs power cables anyway?

I am building a new dedicated sound room and plan to have my sub panel mounted indoors on the back wall behind the components (easy access). I'm considering running leads directly from the panel to the components. I was thinking about running a good quality (Acrolink, Neotech) bulk power cable from the panel and terminate with some high quality Furutech’s FI-50's to go with the Furutech’s FI-9 IEC connectors on the components. Does anyone have any opinions, knowledge, experience with this type of application?

Very sound advice, as always, Viridian.

It would look like freaky, high tech, alien tentacles coming out of the wall. That would be so cool. Do it just for the art!

Thanks for the responses.

I'll cover the wire with the tech wrap (or whatever they call it)- like a regular power cord would have. The cords will be run cleanly, as well, so it should'nt look too freaky.

Thanks

And you are absolutely sure this approach would produce a better result than any other power cord and outlet combination? It could be worse.

I have no idea if this is a good idea or not but I gotta say - You sure made me laugh, not directly at you, but rather at the lengths us audiogoners will go to eek out a degree of better sound. Like the reviewer on another thread that ran the extension cord from his refrigerator in the kitchen through to the living room and plugged it into his new PS Audio Premier Ports for a faster burn-in. I love these threads. More power to you!!
