AC CABLES a little help

Hi everyone I am looking to upgrade my ac cable on my belles hotrod 150a and reg a dec. I know I will need a clover leaf for the rega. so a little about my system. I have the belles hot rod 150a, an ARC LS-7 Vandersteen 2ce sig II. a music fidelity v-link. I have audio quest king cobra interconnects for the rega and the belles. I am also running AQ VDM-5 and AQ carbon usb. so knowing this what do you guys think?

I am considering either shunyata venom, AQ NRG-2, or MIT z-cord ii. . mainly i want 6' cords and keeping the price under 175ish used per ac cable

I think you should consider Neotech NEP-3002 or NEP-3003. Buy a couple of meters and a couple connectors and you have a nice power cord. I use the 3002 on my amp and the 3003 on my Cd player. Partsconnexion, Soniccraft and VH-audio all sell it.

I would recommend saving your money in order to upgrade your main components. Seriously doubt changing an AC cable will transform your system.

I like the way you think , these are the same cords I was considering only a few weeks back. My PC experience is limited as I'm still on the fence as to how much they contribute in MY system. With my monos when I removed the AQ Nrg-10s it sucked the life out of them . These are staying put. When removing the same PCs from my preamp and cdp, not a huge difference. I ended up selling 2 out of 4 of the Nrg-10s, ordering 2 PCs from Cullen Cable and running direct to the wall (dedicated 20amp lines) and skipping the Monster Power unit. Honestly I like the way it sounds direct to the wall opposed to through the Monster, seems a touch more focused than before. Not bad for 2 power cords for under $175 shipped check them out.
