Upgraded AC power cables
« on: September 27, 2005, 07:05:35 PM »
Thought I'd post this info here, as readers of this forum are probably the most interested in this.

In addition to my silver-clad RCA interconnects and silver-clad speaker cables, I'm now making AC power cables.  These Doghouse VH Power Cables are made based on the venerable Ven Haus power cable design using shielded 12 gauge silver-clad cable stock terminated with Marinco hospital grade plugs and Schurter IECs. 

The Doghouse VH power cables are $60 for up to 4' lengths, including shipping.  More info can be found in my post in the retail section.

My first thought was you need to work on your reading comprehension skills ;), then I realized I need to work on my writing skills. ::)

I edited the original post since I mistakenly said Wattgate plugs.  In fact, I'm using Marinco 8215 hospital grade plugs and Schurter IECs.

This is a VERY good price guys for what you would be getting.  Similar cables would run every bit of 100+.  Good luck, they look great.
