Replacement Plasma Cord, Shielding???


I want a longer Power cord for my 58 inch Sammy plasma. The only HDMI it touches is the one that goes from tv to processor, so not the source hdmi cables. Therefore no audio is going to tv obviously.

The one that came with the tv is a 6 foot shielded right angle cord. I went to my local parts store (u do it electronics) and they have the right angle cord but it is not Shielded and it is not UL listed i believe. Not sure if either of these matter???

Should I be getting a Shield power cord??? The gentleman at the store claimed it would not make a difference, not sure if he realized my set up of course.

If so does anyone have an suggestions for a right angle shielded option??? RAM had some custom made ones and it would run aprox 60-80 with shipping. Am I pushing it with the one from the local store??

thanks all,

David

Well I was a skeptic when it came to power codes until I took a leep of faith and upgraded the cable on my Pioneer Elite 50" and yes I noticed an improvement immediately. I didn't spend a lot of money on it, went with a Shanyata Venom (it is shieled) at about $80 CDN. It made a difference and I know it because I can see it. In my case I feel it was money well spent. As for a right-angle end, have you tried looking for a right-angle adapter plug?
