Just ordered a KingRex PSU for my RR-77

In about two weeks, I�ll get to see firsthand what all the hubbub is about. Audio Magus is currently backordered, but I was told that the next shipment will arrive in about a week and a half. The only bummer is that unless you�re technically minded and can fashion your own, you�re stuck ordering the AM cord to link the PSU and RR-77, and it costs about a third of what the KingRex does. The stock cord is apparently way too short for most applications. Oh well. I�ll report back once I get the PSU, though I have a feeling a few people will beat me to it. :)

The stock DC cord is 21" long. If you simply use the KingRex as a platform for the RR-77, a 5" cord would be long enough.

Cheers,
Robin

  I really don�t have the room to place the PSU under the RR-77, hence the need for the longer cord. I�ll probably place the King Rex on the unused bottom shelf of my rack and use the 8� cord to link it to the RR-77, which is about 6.5� above it.

    Then you can do it the way I did, just make a longer dc cable, the one supplied is 21", ie < 2ft

      Unfortunately, unlike many here, my technical skills are severely limited. A lot of this is WAY beyond my understanding and ability. Hell, I don�t even own a soldering iron! So I just ponied up and bought the Audio Magus cord. I�m sure it�ll be good.

        Nor do I have a soldering gun. I would have done the same in your sitation but I'm glad I didn't have to. I think the shorter the dc cable the better. I actually had a shielded Nitro DC cable made up from Bolder Cable for my Channel Island ps/Trends UD 10.1 USB transport connection. An upgraded DC cable for a nonaudio component isn't necessary tho.
