Accuphase E-5000 factory power cord good enough?

I have Accuphase E5000 plugged into my Equitech son of q jr. balanced power supply. Sounds great and I have had the Equitech for a good 15 years now. Everything is dead quiet, not even a hiss coming from the system. Just started thinking about power cords and if it is worth it, I’m in the U.S., if that matters. Thanks

Not sure if this is the correct place to post this...

@gibsonian $1,000 for a PC that is fatter than the internal wiring in the e5000 and the wiring in the home? 3'-6' of a power cord? I don't have the extra money like I did at the time of buying the e5000.

Look into ''Ice age cable". Good pricing for what they are.

An MIT Z Cord lll, non networked cord might be beneficial. New near $1900, used 1/2 or less. I like mine.

Thank You for citing your Cables/Cords. Accuphase gear already has robust power supplies (even their Disc spinners) so I have not felt the need to upgrade my DP-65v stock PC. At audio shows,  it would be of interest to learn brand(s) Accuphase exhibits.

 

Happy Listening!
