Power cord suggestions for CDP and tube amp

I just purchased a Consonance Droplet 5.0 CDP and wondered what after-market cables are recommended for this player. I did read a thread about this from January of this year, but wondered if users had any more suggestions. I saw that Consonance actually makes cables as well, but found no opinions about their power cables here.

I would also like recommendations for a power cable for an Art Audio Carissa Signature tube power amp (this amp is not in the same system as the CDP.)

I can not afford thousands of dollars for these cables, I would prefer only paying $400-$500 for each - used is fine!

Thank you both for your responses. I will look into the cables suggested. Any other recommendations?

Thorman - stupid noob question for you. On the VH site, Chris is offering 15 Amp or 20 Amp versions of the power cord - I have seen these 2 selections on other cable sites, too. How does one determine which version is needed??? :-o

Also, are you using the Virtual Dynamic cable for your CDP and the VH Flavor 4 for your amp?

Try a Signal Cable Silver Resolution, it's a great sounding cable at a great price.
