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!

Clio09,
I was going to RMAF to hear Star Sound/Virtual Dynamics room. I had two after hour sessions booked but as of Tues. I'm in a cast from an Achillis heel injury.
Rick will be showing a new cable and Star Sound is debuting their new Stage Platforms.
If you have the time I would like to hear your opinion of their room since I'm very interested in purchasing a few products from both companies. Thanks.
Clio09 - I will definately be going to RMAF. I didn't realize that Virtual Dynamics would be there! I will certainly check out their room, and I, too, hope they have some demo/used cables for sale.

Irish65 - I'm sorry to hear about your injury and that you won't be able to attend. I have missed RMAF the last two years and have kicked myself for not going; I will be there this year. I will be picking up my Sistrum multi-platform from Star Sound; Robert is bringing it with him (a savings on shipping and a RMAF discount to boot.) I look forward to talking with Robert and hearing their new offerings.

Dan of DCCA Audio emailed me today. He responded to my email last week, too, but for some reason I didn't receive it. I am hoping to get a power cord from him, too. He has a great return policy and I think I will enjoy working with him.

I'm getting really excited about going to RMAF. I have read the comments/reviews of folks that have gone the last two years and it sounds like a very good, all-audio, fun festival indeed.

Irish65, thanks for the heads up. The combination of those two vendors will make for a very interesting room. If you like, email me offline, maybe I can arrange to give you a real time or near real time update. Hopefully that will soften the blow of not being able to attend in person.
Holly,

Glad your going to RMAF. Robert is a class A gentleman. When I told him on Wed. I could not make it he said he would wheel me around the show. He has been working with me on setting my new room up. I've purchased their Caravelle speakers and amps. Like you I wanted to save the money on shipping by attending. I was planning to pick up four of the Stage Platforms and a pair of the Stage Caravelle stands.
Virtual Dynamics and Star Sound use the same technology and science in their products. Since I plan on building a system using both companies products, that was the reason I was going to the show for an audition. Having the Achilles heel injury come at the 11th hour was a tough pill to swallow.
I've heard good things about the DCCA cables. Let us know how it works out for you.
Even though I'm not in the market for speakers I was interested to give the new Thiel CS 3.7 a listen. I have owned a few pairs of Thiel's in the past and was curious as to how this new model would compare.
Enjoy and would appreciate your feedback from the show.

Clio09,
I appreciate your offer and have emailed you my info.
Irish65 - I would be happy to give you feedback about the festival. Mind you that I am not any where near an expert, but I will do my best.

Holly
