RE: connecting audio gears directly to ac without plugs

Before aftermarket audiophile cords became popular, amplifiers had captive power cords instead of iec's. A hard wired connection makes sense by reducing three connections but having an iec offers the flexibility to try different cords and to use a cord in the length that suits your situation. I commissioned an amplifier upgrade and had a high quality Neoech OCC cord hard wired to the amp at the length I need. That set up works great for me and sounds great too. However, I would not recommend forgoing the connexion at the wall.
