Need: Power cord for Denon AVR-5803 Receiver

[jessing]

Hello ~ looking for advice...
I've moved and managed to lose the cord for my Denon AVR-5803 receiver.
I'm still trying to get a part number out of Denon to order it, but it looks like they want upwards of $35+tax,shpng for a regular power cord. I've checked Radio Shack online and Fry's (in store) and they don't have a replacement.

Do you have any suggestions for where to buy an aftermarket/replacement cord? This is a kind of standard black power cord, 2 prong female to male-end into wall. Very similiar to a computer cord but those are 3 prong.

Better yet, if you have or know someone with a Denon one like this - let me know and I'll buy it from you?

[If interested, I have a jpeg of the back of the receiver that will let you see the shape of the cord I need. I can email it to you. 324K.]

Best,
Thanks,
Jessica

Hello,

I used to have a Denon 5800. The power cord that comes with the unit is a 14/3 (14 Guage, 3 Wire) cord. You should be able to find one inexpensively locally at a computer or electronics store.

Have you thought about making your own? You could pickup the parts from partsexpress, then checkout Take Five for info on how to make it.

Monster Power makes an awesome aftermarket power cable. You can choose from a basic replacement like the Power100 or step it up a notch with the Power200 / 300. I replaced the power cord on my 5803 with the Power200 and it works great.
