Subwoofer Cable help.

So, my brother got very malicious today after I told him he could walk to school because I was feeling way to lazy to get up and bring him to school.
Well, he cut my power cable to my subwoofer. I don't have any available power cords at the moment and not a single store has a decent one in stock.
Question is, what is an affordable power cable for a Polk PSW 505 that I can buy.
Suggestions are welcomed. Thanks. I have snooped around and seen signal cable as regarded and I don't imagine 50 is to bad but, advice is welcomed.
If anyone has any ideas, I may pick one up for my tv as well. Would a better power cord do well for my tv?

    If it is an IEC connector then I would recommend the Pangea Power cable. Cheap and sweet. http://www.audioadvisor.com/products.asp?dept=25
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    If you just want a cord, I've got one you can have. I have the original from my SVS and another one from an H/K7200. They're no Signal or Pangea, but they're not lamp cord either. If you're interested shoot me a pm with your address. If you want to take the opportunity to get something better, I'll second Ben's recommendation. Recently picked up a couple of these and the 9's are like a garden hose.

    Thanks for the offer. I'll shoot a pm tomorrow.
    Ad for the 9s...those are the best for my subwoofer...?
    Wow, they have a cable for pretty much everything...I found one for my ps3, and one for my tv as well...jeez. This hobby is going to run my wife up a wall.
    Just curious on which I should get for my tv, if I decided to just upgrade all of my power cords?

    I hear ya:D

    I think the 14 or 14SE is all you would need for the PS3, TV, etc. The 9 is more for amps, powered subs, etc.

    I bought a 3 pack of the 14's and a single 9. I'd like a 9 for my sub, but I'd need a 3m cord and that gets pricey on my budget.

    You can buy from Amazon to avoid the shipping charges.

    Would be nice if my amp could take the power cord it unfortunately cannot.
    Oh well, I will feed my sub with the "garden hose"
    May pick up those cables over time...it could be fun.
    Just bought some Audioquest Rocket 33s for 150 from Audiogon. So that more money. Wanted the 88s, but it was a 100 more. Oh well wife put the foot down on that one. Said we had car payments and such...all her bills. None of mine. Oh well hah.
