Power Cord & Power Conditioner Recommendations

I just put together a new system:

Rega Planar 3
Rega Fono Pre
Naim Uniti Star
GoldenEar Triton One.R
Wireworld Oasis Cables & Interconnects

There is so much conflicting information and out there about power cords and conditioners and so many manufacturers and products. Any advice about power cords / conditioners? Do they make a big difference? Recommendations for this system (I don't want to overkill $$$ wise)? Also of note the Tritons have powered subwoofers which each need their own cord. Any input would be greatly appreciated thanks!

Cool thanks for the Core Power info I'm checking them out now. Any opinions on how the Core Power units at a similar price point stack up against the Isotek Evo3 Aquarius ghosthouse mentioned?

Can't answer your question, but the EquiCore is balanced power. The hot and neutral are separated from the ground and inverted out of phase. Noise on these lines is removed, then output with a new ground.
Same as a fully balanced amp.

You might want to consider the Audioquest Niagara 1200.
