not terribly stiff, I'd say somewhere in the middle as far as that goes. 12 inches between the wall and the IEC ought to do it.

Ok I measured and 12 is ideal but you could make it work with a minimum of 6 inches that would be with it pushing against the wall behind it.
For what it's worth I didn't hear much with them either. I personally haven't had much luck with cheaper power cords.

I Decided to go with Impact SE power cables from a local Canadian company. A bit more expensive than Signal Cable. I just want a reasonable replacement for the stock cables.
