why not ask Nelson? I own a Model 5 and love it to death. Just had Jon Soderberg work his magic so I get another 20 years out of it. You could ask Jon too.
Install IEC socket ruin
I am the proud owner of a Forte Audio (Threshold) Model 3 solid-state amp. It is a true Nelson Pass design (just ask Mr. Pass), and I love it. It is a 200 wpc Class A/B amp with high bias. Unfortunately, however, it has a rather anemic stock power cord. It is a "lamp-cord" thin cord with a two-prong plug. I would like to add a male IEC socket to the rear panel and buy a nice power cord. I understand the Forte Model 3 has some (modest) collector value. Wouild it be wise to add the IEC or just leave it the way it is?? All learned opinions welcome. Thanks.
