So I did something stupid picked up my sub in Ohio (live in Atlanta) and unboxed it to fit it in my SUV and forgot the power cord. I don't really want to wait to have it shipped from my parents house. I have a cord for a computer monitor that fits but the back of the sub says 115V and on my cord it says 125V. I am guessing this won't work correct? And where is the best place to pick up a replacement?

The cord marked 125 volts should work perfectly. Voltage in the US varies from 110 to 125 volts depending on where you live. During periods of high demand, voltage can sag to under 110 volts. They usually call this a brownout.

Assuming the cord is the thicker round kind of power cord, and not lamp cord, it should work fine.

That 125 volt cord is almost certainly rated for up to 15 amps.

A quick call to AVS should confirm what I am saying.
