Power Cord for PS Audio Power Plant Premier?

I recently replaced my power conditioner with a PS Audio PPP. The old unit's cable had the 20A connector, so I installed the PPP with a PS Audio Statement PC expecting some synergy. While much better than the old conditioner in terms of definition, extension, and "Hi-Fi" characteristics, with the combo there is an emphasis on upper mid/low treble that does not wear well. I tried a JPS Power AC, much richer lower mids and musical flow, but rather dark on top. The PSA cord may just have a long burn-in, but I'm curious what others might have found specifically complements the PPP - or not. Say under $1000 for the sake of argument.

Dedicated 15A AC line, but plenty of compact fluorescent bulbs and a few dimmers in the house. Current demands are low - SACD/CDP, TT, phono stage, passive pre, Bel Canto Class D 150 wpc monoblocks.

I have a PPP on its way here. Should be here within 5 days.

On my P-300, I find the Purist Audio Dominus fluid sounds best out of six different cords that I tried. Will see how it works on the PPP soon.

Interesting that the Russ Andrews cord worked so well for another member. I'll have to try that one also.

I made my own cord for the PPP using Belden 83803 teflon-insulated 12 gauge copper wire, Wattgate connectors and black Techflex braiding. Sounds great to me, an improvement in bass over the stock cord. Best things about making your own are the price, and being able to custom make it to the exact length you need.

Purist Audio Dominus works at least good on everything! That's why it is so popular despite the insane cost.

I would guess that top of the line Stealth costs much more than PPP itself. Would not be very wise.
Ebm, do still have your TW table or upgraded to Simon Yorke?
