Many audio experts claim that substituting a better AC power cord on audio amplifiers improves the performance. This philosophy can be carried to extremes with premium power cords costing as much a $3300 for a one meter cord.

The standard detachable power cord is 18 AWG stranded wire that mates to a universal IEC connector (some are 16 AWG). The UL safety limit is 12 amperes at 120VAC.

SMART offers a custom power cord manufactured for the GC-120 AC Line Purifier that uses 14 AWG stranded wire that can easily handle 15 amps of current because of the lower resistance and increased diameter of the conductors. This molded plug cord measures 6.7 feet and is UL and CSA recognized for safety.

100% shielded conductors. The overall shield greatly reduces hum from the AC line that can be picked up by the nearby audio cables that may be carried throughout the system. It also reduces the chances of RF pickup by making the line cord less of an antenna in installations near strong transmitters. Overall the AC reaching your audio or video components is cleaner.

We do not present this product as a premium power cord but as an “upgrade” to the cord that is normally supplied with high priced equipment. With a suggested retail price of $24.95 the PC120 cord will improve the performance of your system without spending “big bucks” for similar products.
