Cool power cord?

I read in the man. with the f110 that it says do not use any other power cord with these subs. This might be a stupid question, cause I am not a big sub person, but should this be followed?

If we have high end power cords, such as wireworld, audience, and kubala, would that be ok?

thank you

What is so special about the F112 stock power cord? my B&W 855 came with a stock black power cord. I was surprised to see its not grounded plug. When you pay $2,000+ for a sub I guess I would expect a 3 prong cord. I guess it's not required. I still swapped it out with a hi-end power cord that has a grounded outlet although the ground isn't applied to the sub input. At lest is accepts the cable.

What Ivan said +1. Every tweak or upgrade can make a difference and take your system to another level.

On the back of my B&W sub (the power outlet) only has 2 prongs. no grounded outlet. Kinda strange but it works so im good. just surprised it wasn't a grounded 3 prong plug on the rear of my sub.
