Best Power cable around/prefer under $300....

I’m looking for the best Power Cable for a Parasound A21 amp.
I would like to stay below $300 because I feel any aftermarket cable would be a huge upgrade compared to stock.I would really like to hear what you all think! 
I am considering the following,

Shunyata Research Venom HC V2 Power Cable. $298
AUDIOQUEST - NRG-4 15A IEC Power Cable. $180
AUDIOQUEST - Monsoon Power Cable $329 
NORDOST - Blue Heaven Power Cable $219
NORDOST - Red Dawn LS Power Cord $384
AUDIENCE FORTE F3 POWERCHORD - POWER CORD $143.

Hi Iak,
I was looking at the Ocean Elite 3 power cord. what was the deciding factor on choosing the magna? Thanks? I recently purchased the Anti cable PC and I must say, it did make a huge difference in base and sound stage. I am surprised how much of a difference a PC can make.

Hi matt00,I recently added a level 3 Anticables PC, I noticed the same outcome as well.  It only took me a couple years to find a used one at a very reasonable price.

@matt00, I chose the Mega strictly based upon the suggestions of other Audiogon members that have heard the various AC power cords that Audio Envy make.

Another vote for Audio Envy Mega 3. As @lak pointed out, Mega 3 uses twice the conductors than Ocean Elite 3p and recommended for any high current electronics like amps, integrated or power conditioners.
