Power cord recommendation for a dac?

if you spend more then $16.95 the whole world will laugh at you for the rest of your life !!! any engineer will tell you the same  ! 

I like shielded power cables for DAC's, but they don't have to be expensive.

"In the year of our Lord 1432, there arose a grievous quarrel among the brethren over the number of teeth in the mouth of a horse. For 13 days the disputation raged without ceasing...."

There is a charming parable illustrating the need for empirical evidence. It concerns scholars vigorously debating the number of teeth in a horse's mouth. A naive young man suggests that they might resolve the question by looking in the horse's mouth and counting them. The scholars are horrified at this outrageous suggestion. 

pmboyd .... ok  let me do some explanation....
any DAC circuit is powered by   2 or 3 low voltage lines 3.3 V, 5V and 12V.
most likely 120-220 Volt AC line(that is where you connect your supper expensive  AC cable) goes to switch mode power supply circuit  ... the output  of that supply is 15-16 volt DC or additional 7V DC. those 1 or 2 lines are used to produce lower desired voltages (3.3V or 5V or 12 V ..whatever needed) ... DC regulator ICs + electrolytic capacitors + ceramic type   capacitors are used to make those DC supplies free of any "noise" low frequency or high frequency  . ONCE AGAIN POWER SUPPLY AC CABLE (CORD)  CAN NOT AFFECT THE QUALITY OF THOSE DC LINES  AND SOUND QUALITY !
it is a scientific fact...Blind test will prove me right.
those who detect differences in sound (different sound level or "improvement " in sound quality) with different AC cords ... please see psychiatrist   . 

Haha, arguing from ideology when empirical results plainly contradicts.
