Oyaide or Furutech plugs

Hi everybody,

I'm currently thinking about buying a new DIY mains cable.
It will probably go to my headphone amp (Viva Egoista 845) or maybe to my DAC (Weiss Medea+).

I made my choice about the cable itself, I'd like to try the Furutech FP-TCS31.

But I have some hesitation about the plugs, between the recent gold Furutech FI-28/38 (G) and the Oyaide P004/C004 (beryllium/palladium).

I'm looking for some very liquid and smooth sound, with no spike/highlight in the treble or in the high-medium which could sound agressive.

Did some of you try these plugs and could help me to choose by giving me some infos about the differences?

Best regards,
Sylvain

Don't want to steer you away from the Furutech if you're set on it, but I've had good DIY results on tube/hybrid power amp with Acrolink 7N P4030II. 
https://www.ebay.com/itm/ACROLINK-7N-P4030II-Stressfree-Power-Cable-Sold-By-1Meter-Each-Cut-100-Genu... Very smooth and detailed, with good bass.  And 7N P4020III on all things digital.  Oyaide connectors (I'm using P/C-004) are a bit pricey, but are rock solid.
