This is a really embarassing question, but I don't know much about power cords since I always use the manufacturer's power cord. I have a The Speaker Company ASW-10 subwoofer and the 6' power cord is not long enough. The back of the subwoofer says 120v ~60Hz 1.6A.


Would either of these work?

Either should work. The power cord is the same standard cord used on computer cases, with this end going into the device:

Those look like they would work as long as both end are the same as what is on your cord. Does your current cord have a ground? Many sub cords only have 2 prongs. You could just use an extension cord. My subs have cords without the third prong ground. I was short about 5ft on one of my subs. I got a short 6ft 2 prong extension cord from a home center and it works fine. It's even black so it matches the factory cord.

- LOL. I was looking at the power cable of my TV. I found the subwoofer cable and it looks like it's just long enough. It actually has a 2 prong plug.


That's what happens when your equipment isn't set up and you have cords laying around everywhere. Thanks for the help.
