The wallwart supply is cheaply made and has a couple of basic problems:-it makes electrical noise and lacks the ability to filter it;
-it hangs off the AC plug and the weight causes an uncertain AC connection, even with a good outlet.
You would not want to change the fuse in the regulated power supply. The 300 mA rating of the wallwart simply tells you its capacity. Your load probably draws less than this, and having a regulated supply with greater capacity will not hurt anything.
There are many low-cost versions of the DC plugs and jacks. Switchcraft makes some nicer ones. Look at the catalog page referenced and see if one of the jacks shown looks like the jack on your equipment. You may need to obtain a pair of fine calipers to measure the diameter of the interior pin, or simply ask the manufacturer.
Yes, you can use an interconnect cable to supply the DC. Getting the polarity of the voltage right is very important: check it with a voltmeter on your present wallwart supply before you make a replacement.
