mixing power cords?

My system only has 3 pcs, currently 2 AQ NRG2s and an MIT Zcord II going to my SimAudio Equinox. I'm not satisfied with the NRG2s, especially powering my Krell KAV400xi integrated - I ordered a Cardas Golden Ref. powercord for it, and need a third to plug my power conditioner (PS audio duet) into the wall (PS audio PowerPort). will using a mish-mash of well-reviewed powercables be detrimental? should I seek uniformity? Any suggestions for a third cable (price range $250 - $300 used)?

I guess I want to add a variety of elements - I'm happy with the detail I'm getting from the Equinox/Z-cord II, but sometimes I feel like the system could use more musicality, which is why I ordered the Cardas GR powercord. From a third cord (either between the duet and the wall or between the duet and the KAV400xi - going to experiment), I guess I'd like detailed treble and some speed. I don't really have a problem with bass.
So in summation, I'd like an improvement in detail/clarity of treble and in musicality. Is it too much to ask for? What about the Audience PowerChord ? I've heard good things about it as an all-round detailed/fast cord.
