Black Sand Cable Power Cords How Good?

How good are the Black Sand Cable power cords? I want to upgrade my stock power cords on my integrated amp and cd player. I have been reading some very positive comments on these cords. I would appreciate any comments from current and previous owners. Budget around three to five hundred for each cord. Thanks.

System:
Plinius 9200
CDP:Naim CD5I-2
DNM Speaker & IC cables
Speakers:Dynaudio Focus 140's on sound anchor 3 post stands

FWIW, look at this review: http://www.dagogo.com/View-Article.asp?hArticle=6

I don't know if there is a Black Sound Violet power cord or they mean Black Sands Violet.

Also take into account, if it is the Black Sands, what the cost of the other power cords are that the reviewer is comparing it to. That says something itself of the company the reviewer believes its in.

I've never heard a Black Sands power cord, so I have no personal experience with them.

Also FWIW, there are several reviews, mostly positive, over at audio circle. I bought a violet zII at auction here to try out, but sold it recently as it was not as good in my system as other cords I tried (have a used audience and several kaplan cords, in similar price range). it may have been the oyaide 004 terminations, but black sand was a little bright in my system. others seem to like it quite well though
