| Power Cord Length As a relative newcomer, I may be out of line, but I really hate it when the original question gets lost and rancor and animosity lead us down the slippery slope to nowhere.Either agree to disagree or just let it go....Please. | |
| Power Cord Length dbtom2- not bad...Hopefully, almarg will post on this. He usually has the ability to answer these questions with scientific acumen.In my humble opinion, I would use a power cord that is long enough to reach the outlet and component, yet provide en... |
