Different Power Cords in same system - ok or bad?

I currently have a Transparent Audio Reference PowerIsolator power conditioner and a Transparent Reference Powerlink going from the conditioner to the outlet wall (it came with the power conditioner). I will soon be replacing the stock cords on all my components incrementally that will plug into the conditioner and wondered if it is recommended to go with all Transparent Power Cords or can I go with a different company such as Nordost, Shunyata, or Audience? I didn't know how important it was to keep this matched to my power conditioner and its dedicated cable. In case it matters, I DON'T have Transparent Audio speaker cables and interconnects. This is my only Transparent product thus far in my system. Thanks for your input.

Dj-

the Transparent cables/cords are built to compliment one another. Especially ture, if one is using one of their power/line conditioners. Synergy is going to be key.

Another factor to consider is that the individual pieces of gear that is in your rig. Some brand(s) are better w/ Transparent PC while others are not. Should you have any queries contact Transparent and ask for Brad.

Finally, the most cost-effective way to size up your system
w/ any line of cabling, is by first starting w/ PC and work from there. Keep me posted & Happy Listening!
