New power cord needed for speaker with powered subwoofer?


I just bought GoldenEar Triton 1 speakers.
They have built in subwoofers self powered with 1800 watts.
My question is would they greatly benefit from new brand name power cords?
Or do you think the power cords designed for them suffice?

Does anyone know if there is a difference in quality between Cullen and Morrow?
It’s very tempting to dismiss the whole aftermarket cable business as hokum, and save a lot of money, but for the fact that I have heard with my own ears discernible differences that cables make.  Some either don’t hear the differences or consider them to be so small as to be insignificant.  Those differences, which are admittedly small, mean everything to some audiophiles, who may exaggerate them to the point that it makes no sense to the deniers.
The argument is really between apples and pears.  Each side is talking about different things.
 So, when someone tells me they have my speakers and aftermarket cables improved their sound, I tend to be on the side of:
”Vive la difference.”
Prof,

I have a vivid imagination, but when comes to music and things aural, I have a pretty good ear.
Mrdecibel,

Yes, I did hear a difference using the MAP4’s.  I just wasn’t sure if the same results would apply with the subwoofer cords.
From two reports above by Agoners who have my speakers, evidently it’s worth getting the aftermarket cords.
Update:
Just got Morrow MAP3 power cords for subwoofer component of GE’s.
BIG difference!
Bass much cleaner and more focused.
Very good addition.
Bob,

Right now the speakers are sounding so good, I can only imagine how much better they will sound.
