Help selecting a power cord.

All my gear has the factory supplied power cords  I’m ready to try 1 aftermarket power cable as a test.  So what brand power cable should it be and what device gets it first?  Tube pre?  Tube main?  D/A?  CD transport?  Roon Nucleus?  Subs?  GE Trefs?? Turntable? Oppo 103?   Which piece of my gear should be most affected by the improved power cord??  I look forward to the responses and will likely choose the cord that has the most recommendations.

Have you done room treatments?

I would start there.

I tried the AQ Blizzard in my preamp on demo and it did wonders for my system. I am going Blizzard( two 1m and 1- 2m)now for my power amps and preamp, Monsoon for my Atmos amps and Oppo 105 dac and finally a 2m AQ Thunder for my power conditioner. I have a Monsoon hooked up to my preamp now and it sounds pretty fine in there but the Blizzard will really opens things up on my system anyways. So I ordered a 1m Blizzard(preamp) and two 2m Monsoons(Atmos amps).   

Happy hunting and hope you find something that works and sounds right for you within your budget. If your dealer can let you audition some cables it really helps you decide to see if a particular PC will sound right to you before you invest the money or a good return policy works as well.
