Power Cord Advice

As this seems to be the rage, I too have been bitten by the power cord bug. I am interested in upgrading all of the power cords through out my system and I was hoping for some general thoughts on a few cords at the top of my list. Likewise, I welcome any additions to the list.

Harmonic Tech
Pro-AC11 -Currently using all HT cables throughout the system with good results

BMI Whale Elite
With such great reviews and an almost cult like following, I'm curious. Does anyone have information regarding build specs (gauge, conductor type, etc) or the theory behind the design?

PS Audio Lab or Mini Lab.
I heard these in a friends system and I was impressed and they also got a favorable nod from Fremer.

I welcome any and all feedback/ideas. Thanks again for all of your help!
Currently, my system includes the following:

Von Schweikert VR-4
Electrocompaniet 4.7 preamp
Electrocompaniet AW-60 amps (2)
Electrocompaniet EMC-1 CD player
Harmonic tech Pro-Silway MKII IC
Harmonic Tech Pro-11 speaker cable (2 pair)

Hey Sean-What if I told you I use power cords that I snatch off a Sears model IBRNJSTRGHT toaster oven? That would mean that the only place you could obtain them is...Yep! That's right-SEARS!! I suppose you would proclaim that has a fishy smell too? Glenno is merely stating the truth of the matter. The only place who sells the Absolute power cord is GTT Audio.

I liked the TG Audio HSR-A on the EVo amplifier and my cd player was so clean with it's "Brilliant" power supply (swithc mode), I didn't notice much difference with or without a cord. I'v heard that Tekline makes an excellent source power cord and EVS just switched from Tekline ($400) to Acoustic Zen ($150) as their cord of choice on digital. Plus they give a 30 day trial with return option.

I just talked to Bill(GTT Audio)this afternoon. I'm getting some more Absolute Power Cords for my other components. My testimonial is in Bill's website, as well as here. He has not given me--nor have I asked for-- any favors. The cord's design is simple, scientific and fuctional (non Voodoo).
