I'm hesitating to ask this, but if I don't ask, I'm not going to find out ...

I'm not a hifi-ist, but my Father was. I'm currently trying to work out exactly what he had, and whether to keep or sell.

He used Nordost power cables from a Taga distribution block into the back of his equipment. But rather than than the "kettle" lead connectors that I was expecting (or captive power leads plumbed into the back of each unit) his CD player and pre amp (and probably the rest - I didn't check it all) have two prong style mains sockets??

Did he get these converted in some way to use the Nordost cables?

If I sell power cables (as they seem to be pricey) what would I replace them with?

The CD player is a Marantz KI Pearl Lite, and the preamp is an Audiolab 8000c, in case that matters.
