Win a power cord.

Hey, we are having a contest. A little fun that started out as a joke but I thought I would share it with the Audiogon crowd. We build a cable to support our charity (see link: http://www.audiovideonews.com and click on "New Stories") Anyway, we have run into a problem in that we don't have a name for the power cord that we sell. I came up with the brilliant idea of having a contest where people could offer suggestions. Winner (decided by me) gets a free 6ft Power Cable. Maybe 70242.241 could win a power cord and see the light! Anyway... all proceeds for the sale of cords go to benefit our charity. See following link:

Come on... pitch in this could be fun.

How about naming your best cord (with the best plugs) "Krazy Kord" and a budget cord "Ignatz".

How about the "Power Chord".

Kevin: On a more serious note, would you be willing to make up "extension" cords (12' to 24') based on the BC power cord design, or would the increase in length mess up the sound? I might also need a longer PC (12') for the amp. I am moving my gear to a closet (except the speakers) and am considering using extension cords instead of running new lines. Though this is all slightly off topic I wonder if others might be interested in quality extension cords as well, so I am putting it out in the open.

Cornfedboy: Thank you very much. I really am not some sort of hero. I rather enjoy making power cords and the Adoption Fund just helps me justify my hours of tweaking audio stuff. :) Anyway, I wise man once said, "Those who only seak self-fulfillment, never find it."

Dekay: Good idea but we only have one type of plug. All of our cords are both the "budget cord" and top of the line!
Reason we have only one type of plug? Well, I found one that works well and see no reason to mess with something that works.

Thanks everyone... keep them coming!
