Flexable Power Cables for PS Audio Stellar PreAmp/Dac S300 amp


I was hoping for suggestions on power cords that aren't stupid expensive. I had the PS Audio Stellar DAC/Pe-amp and Stellar S300 amp. I currently running both of them with Pangea Audio AC 14SE MKII Signature Power Cable with Cardas Copper. I was thinking of going up in size to 10-12 gauge? I have the  Pangea Audio AC 9SE MkII Signature Power Cable with Cardas Copper going to my Onkyo Surround 11 output amp. That 9SE is the worse flexable cable ever made. I regret purchasing it. I had to build side cable wooden holder for it.  It maybe good, but really really really REALLY STIFF!! So I don't want that for my Stellar's. I like shielded because my units are in a 3 way side entertainment center. It is hard to keep everything separated. Anyone have suggestions under $175 each of shielded power cables that can actually bend?  Thanks Scott

Stereo5, eh, I don’t know. I’m not familiar with the Pangeas but they seem well constructed. it’s just hard to believe a strip of power cord could have a profound (i.e. less than subtle) effect on sound in most systems. I use Shunyata as well, but i hate to see a moderately priced product dismissed when the op is mentioning price as an important consideration. It is possible that power cords are more critical in a high watt config.  
Anyway, If they aren’t good you did the op a favor. Just me trying to apply logic to a hobby when i should know better by now :)
I’d like to address this issue, @glow_worm. Pangea is well constructed and would probably provide service for years. As with all cables, design determines the synergy and performance in a system; conductor configuration, dialectric design and materials, terminations, I’m sure you know all this.
Two affordable superior PC’s that I found are Cullen and Signal cables.

I find power cables to have a significant impact on sonics if a system is at a certain level of performance.


I am looking at the Signal  Cable, Silver Resolution Reference, per the suggestions. Thanks for suggestions all, so far! 
Pangea used to brag about the PVC insulation that they used in their PCs.      Not certain what they’re using now, but- PVC’s Dielectric Constant is twice that of Polypropylene or Teflon.      Almost twice Butyl Rubber’s, but- it’s cheap.      https://passive-components.eu/what-is-dielectric-constant-of-plastic-materials/
