What is this answer of pulling a dedicated green wire with a romex line...
What kind of garbage is this?
What we just pull a separate wire along with a romex? Maybe lay it across
the floor?
Romex is trade name of a non-metalic cable. His 12/2 is 2 conductors and a
bare ground. It is good for 120 V wiring and in the USA if you black or red
tape the exposed white conductor you can use it as a hot and wire up 220V.
Done deal...
Lets not get back to 1000 half correct and bad advice answers on how to wire
an amplifier. This is all over the archives all the way back to 1999.

#12 is just fine. It's rated for 20A, and there will be relatively
little IR drop in such a short length.
You MUST, however, pull a dedicated safety ground (green wire) with
that line, and connect it to the third (round) pin on the outlet and
to the ground bus in the breaker panel.
