Postscript
Before you embark on an illusory swap-in and swap-out bake-off of a lengthy list of contenders and pretenders, please consider the non subtle effects of changes during and after a proper burn-in time of your system gear.
My REGA gear required about a full 350-400+ hour burn-in period before it settled in to a more stable continuing state and the final "veil" was lifted.
Ignoring the obligatory burn-in period of any new power cord itself for the moment, I would not rush to judge any new cable and its sonic signature before the burn-in period has run its course. Otherwise all you are witnessing is a high probability of misleading false positives or false negatives.
