Can upgraded power cords help my setup?

I have some KEF LS50 Wireless speakers and decided to use them with a Bluesound Node 2 via a Lifatec optical cable. Can I see a significant and worthy improvement if I swap out my power cords for something like Pangea cords? Do I need the AC 9SE MKII on the speakers or will the AC 14SE MKII be good for each speaker and also the Node 2 (C7?)? Power cords seem to be the only place left for me to tweak the most out of my setup.

Thanks for any input.

I own Krell, Bryston , McIntosh, electronics!
Spent thousands on national brand cables ! Stick to custom made cable makers! Same or better results for 1/3 the money!
My cables from Walter Wegrzyn Cable Co in Mesa Arizona! Custom cables , incredible quality, won't bankrupt you!

NO.

Power cords do absolutely nothing.  Think about it, what do you think you are plugged into?  As long as you are delivering the volts and amperes you are done.

All audio equipment runs on DC.  So what does matter is if your power supplies in your equipment is doing a good job of converting AC to DC.

Agree with David Clarke 100%. Power cords will do nothing. Instead of wasting money on expensive cables, buy a good book about electronics and learn it. It will send you tons of money in the future, because you will see through audiowoo.
