Power Cord for Power Conditioner


I'm trying to figure out if it is absolutely necessary to use a company's power cord with their power conditioners. No brand in particular.Any help would be appreciated.
thanks in advance,

Not unless you want the benefit of their research in developing the Power Conditioner. Companies build their equipment using their own resources. If they build a cable they most likely developed their condition running their cable. Using another companies cord isn't a major problem as I'm sure a lot of memebers do. I run a Shunyata Component and use their cord as well.
I own and use:
Furman REF20i
PS Audio P600
PS Audio PPP
And use Pangea powercords on everything
Hope that helps.
(And IMO no you do not need to use the same companies powercord on thier power conditioner. any advertising that claims otherwise is just puffery.
i would allow that some work well with the companies own cord. but it is NOT required.
Some companies may voice the PowerConditioner with a specific cord. These are the hi-fi companies. I'd stick with whatever it came with it for a while and experiment gingerly.

Other companies, perhaps my Panamax, who go to less trouble and source the cord mainly based on price could probably benefit from a cord upgrade. I'd approach this one with a 'got little to lose' attitude. I might even start with some of Elizebeth's overstock of Pangea! hint hint.
Wow I'm really off the track. I'd never thought of power conditioner having detachable power cord. MMM Still don't know what for.
for most folks:
It is much less expensive and maybe even easier to ship if you build your conditioner with a detachable fitting and buy cords in case lots. The cord is packaged with the PC for shipping. Less labor and your not dragging a cord around during manufacture.

for audiophiles
cost is no object and they'll experiment with cords until the money runs out.
