Power Cord suggestions

See below for the system. I would like to upgrade my power cable on my cd player and am not sure where to start. I am not too sensitive to price, but nothing insane - I understand that is a matter or degree in this hobby :) Thanks.

Cary Audio 303/300
CAT SL-1
VTL 450's
Martin Logan Sequel II's

IC is Purist Audio Venustas
Speaker Cable is Cardas Golden Ref
PC on VTL's is Nite II
PC on ML Sequels is Cardas Golden Reference
PC on the Cary is 14 year old Cardas Golden

The VTL's are in the wall through a PS Audio Ultimate Outlet
The rest of the system is plugged into a PS Audio P600.

Go with Tara Labs AC Reference. I find this cable gets you most of what power cords have to offer sonically. This cable is as good as most of the MIT stuff costing much more. If you really have money to blow..then go with the AC Prime. Build quality and looks are great with either.

I very highly recommend the van den Hul Mainsserver. It was a revelation in my system. It is specially designed for CD players.

I use the 303/300 in my system and have tried a lot of different power cords with it before deciding on the best ( IMO) cord for it - the Nirvana Source AC power cord, which is not insanely priced ($595/1.5M), but gets the very best from the 303/300. Second place went to the Purist Aqueous Anniversary power cord, but the Nirvana beat this out at least in my system. Have FUN!
