Korg DW8000, Mono/Poly, MS-20...

Don't know if the cable is your problem -- however:

I've repaired several of these, and the first thing I always do is replace 
the power jack with a standard, three-prong computer type jack (available 
for a couple of bucks at most electronic stores -- not sure if Rat Shack 
still carries them).  This permanently eliminates the cord-replacement problem.

If you have any experience with soldering/electronics repair, it's a very 
simple procedure;  if not, consult someone who knows what they're doing.

As for other things to look at in your particular case, there is always the 
possibility of a dead fuse on the internal fuse board.  If you have to open 
the unit up anyway, this is something to check (just be sure to keep track 
of all those screws -- the DW8000 has more screws than any other synth I've 
seen).
