Power cord from speaker cables?

I have an extra 1.5m pair of Cardas Golden Hexlink 5C speaker cables and also some Audio note copper cables.
Can I use these for making power cords? My system comprise
Capitole MKII and KR8000 monos. At present I'm using stock cords. Many thanks for your contribution.

KR8000 draw alot of juice. I don't know the diametre of the hexlinks -- but I would make sure I'm within regulation size for the amperage required. Don't do antyhing before you get feedback from the likes of Sean!

Nice system, though. What's the rest?

Some of the Audioquest cords are the same as the speaker cable. They just put on a different outer jacket, so it looks different.

Please contact Cardas, and maybe they should do it. Don't want to violate any electrical codes and fry you, your equipment or your house.
