Power Cables

Is it necessary to use the same brand and model of power cables for the amp and pre-amp? Any thoughts about mixing and matching? I know it all comes down to how they sound, but would love to hear your inputs or tips to guide me in the selection.

Thank you. The last point about best cable to preamp, then source and then amp is helpful.

If you are using a high power amp you should use a PC rated for use with high current components.
Preamps and DAC's draw very low current and can use a 14 gauge (thin) cable.

Mr. Spock is not a real person he's purely fictional but that you keep posting this "non-quote" here again and again as though it carries some truth, authority or validity shows that this fantasy person was right about delusion because you seem to be consumed by it!
