Power cables, I need help


I have finally got all the components that make very good music in my system! My last tweek is power cables & maybe a line conditioner. I have read here on audiogon where some use p/c's only on certain components and some suggest plugging them only into the wall outlet. I have also read sometimes a/c conditioners do more harm than good. I have mono block tube amps and a tube preamp. I would be willing to spend $1,000 - $2,000 new or used, what should I be looking for? & is there a component that works better with a power cord?

Thanks, Bob

Brands that I have found of good quality and good overall sound are Analysis Plus Power Oval and PS Audio power cables.
I used all SONORAN cables and cords, they really brough my system together.They have 30 day return policy.Go to the discussion forum and read about SONORAN Cables.
First thing you got to do is get dedicated lines for your gears. Without ddedicated circuits, you are wasting money on power cords and conditioners. Do a search on this site on the topic, it's been discussed a few times.
I agree that dedicated lines should be considered before you do anything. Also, there is not a power cord on the market, no matter how expensive, that will do what a comparable power conditioner can. That being said: dedicated lines, power conditioner and good quality cords: you'll have electric nirvana. FWIW, I agree ( I have them in my system) with the recommendation concerning Sonoran cables and power cords. I do prefer, however, the Harmonix Studio Masters over the Sonorans. They are significantly more, but in this case they deliver big time. happy listening. warren
Do you ever notice how many suggestions you get on different power cables that have performed to someone's like in their on system. The rule of the day is try before you buy. Might save yourself a buck or two. Power cords are somewhat of a mystery, sometimes they work, sometimes they don't.
Your components power supplies have a lot to do with how and if a power cable will work. The problem is, nobody can decide on any group of cables and wether they need to be shielded or not and on and on and on.
On the Bryston sight, their opinion is a power cable is a waste of money and others hold this thought. I have actually heard a cable or two make a difference. I never could decide if it was better or not. Just different.
