Power Cables - Which Is Best For My Setup?

I have a setup that consists of a Audio Research GSi75 Receiver, Wilson Watt/Puppy 7 speakers, Transparent Audio Premium Series Ultra speaker cables, Synergistic Research Galileo (USB) and Accelerator RCA ICs, ClearAudio Ovation TT, Roon Nucleus and the power cable is between 3x at the moment, and that is where I need your opinions since one cannot be currently sampled in my system:

1. Cardas Beyond Clear 2. Synergistic Research SE T3 3. Shunyata Alpha HC

Which do you think is best for my system and why? Thank you.
Lastly, the Shunyata is a 20 amp version so I am currently not able to hear/test this one and I need to find a 15 amp version to swap to in case anybody has or knows of one please let me know. So for now I can only compare the SR and the Cardas, this is why your opinion is important until I can get it swapped out and test out all 3x side by side. Thank you in advance for your time and opinions on this matter.

lostbears: Thank you for the wonderful response. I need to get a 15A Shunyata swap happening so I can use that in my system. Very excited to try it out.
I upgraded from the VSi75 and both that and the GSi75 had 15A power inputs. Very weird as to why they chose that for these models.

 If you do go with Shunyata, make sure to get the HC version. There is a big difference between the regular and HC versions.

Thanks for all the awesome feedback. I wasn't looking to purchase new cables as I already had these 3x cables here physically so I chose to go with the Shunyata Alpha HC as it was hands down the best fit for my system.
