Also, even if there is no other device drawing electrical current from the same electrical circuit at the same time, some manufacturers might recommend not using an extension cord because:
1) some extension cords are not rated for full wattage that a high-wattage Class A amp might draw at peak.
2) extension cords are generally not as safe (people trip over them) as the first 2 meters of power cord)
3) from what I have read in the past... if some other device is plugged in, even if it is not "on", it is possible that it may present a load to the electrical circuit.
