      Just found this:

      http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1138008-REG/flexson_flxp3x3m1011us_straight_extension_cable_for.html

      Not helping!! You can use almost every available straight 8 plug for Play3 and 5!! The Play1 however gets its power from the bottom and the plug is angled. Only special cables really fit in there, no normal angled 8 plugs mostly, as they tend to be not leveled with the base.

      Possibly the Flexson 3m Play1 cables might fit best? http://www.flexson.co.uk/accessories/dh-sonos-accessories

      On Amazon you can get an extension, to which your existing cable connects into. This doesn't protrude. It's by Flexon.

      It seems the official line from Sonos is conflicting on the replacement of power cords. I have a Soundbar and the user manual clearly states using a replacement power cord will invalidate the warranty, yet in these forums you can read that it's just a standard figure 8 cable and one can be picked up from any retailer.

      I need a 5 metre cable but don't see that Sonos sell them. What can I do?

      get a standard figure 8 cable and replace or use and extension cord. If you need warranty service don't send in the figure 8 cable.

      Just bought a C7 10 meter cable off ebay for £10 delivered for one of my Play 1 surrounds, just need to change the fuse when it turns up.

      Was going to chop the original but for the sake of £10 not worth the hastle..
