Where will my powercables be used best ?

Hi,

If I were to power all of my system with high quality power cables, I would need minimum 5 pcs. I only have 3 right now, so were will I get the most from them ?
My system consists of a cd/ sacd, a preamp, two monoblocks and a power re-generator. The analouge rig is not included in this question!
The cables I have now are. 1 x Nordost Vishnu + 2 x Nordost El Dorado. In time I will upgrade the Supra cables I have for the rest of the system as well, but the financial criscis have also hit Denmark were I Live !

So many companies so many power supply implementations, the first post was spot on.

A few years back I tried 3 various price point PCs into a CDP and pre/pwr combo in different combinations. Improving the PC to the pwr amp made little difference, to the cdp as the PC improved so did the sound and the pre was the big surprise. Improving the PC made a night and day difference to the system performance. Over the years I've found that the only thing consistent is inconsistency when it come to PCs and matching them to the equipment they supply.

A bit off the thread. Someone here put a good power cord on his refrigirator, and you know what? Green vegetables turned red in a few hours. So what's my point? You never really know. In my limited experience the biggest change is with preamplifiers or integrateds followed by digital front end.

Thanks guys for the feedback.

I have tried to mingle them arround, and to me it seems that I am getting the most from feeding the re-generator with one of the El Dorados, the pre-amp with the other, and using the Vishnu ( the best sounding of the pc`s ) on the cd. The poweramps are still feed via the Supra directly from the mains since the re-generator can´t supply enough power for them. But it works ok for now.
