QC Power Supply Improvements

Quad Cortex Feature Requests

  1. The CABLE: QC Power supply is quite flimsy cable wise, and where it connects to the wall wart. Could there be a thicker gauge cable and a firmer connection to the wart? Mine bent too far exposing the inner cabling, which was still plugged in causing sparks to come off it. Not safe.

  2. The WALL WART: It does not firmly stay in outlet sockets. The slightest bump or turn of a 6 pack power strip can loosen the connection too easily, causing the unit to flicker or loose power all together.
    The wall wart in general is cumbersome. Could this unit work with an AC power cable, as with amps and powered speakers?

  3. The BARREL: How about a barrel connecter locking mechanism?PLEASE this! :pray:t3: UAD Apollo interfaces use a barrel connector locking system where you plug in and quarter turn to lock the barrel in place. It is wonderful, and secure from getting yanked out at any time.

Thanks for any consideration.

Others have already asked for improvements to the power supply. Also, there are many threads in this forum where folks have shared their solutions for a better power supply, myself included.

Thank you. I did search this topic in order to not repeat ideas, but this it really didn’t come up with much in the search.
I guess I was looking in the wrong spot?
