Power Cable Suggestions Needed

Like the title says I’m looking for a few power cables.  Right now between my preamp, amp, streamer, dac, and conditioner I have two Shunyata Venom 3s. I’m looking for a cable that will help tighten up the bass.  Maybe even a touch lean in the bass could be good for my setup right now.  I worry that cables with this kind of bass could also lean to the brighter side in the upper mids and treble. I’d like to avoid that if possible.  My budget, 100-200$ per cable, isn’t much and I know I can’t expect miracles.  When I added the two Venoms it was a very substantial improvement, and Shunyata is definitely on my radar now. I’d be happy with more of their cables, but curious if there’s brands that are known for a more detailed, controlled bass response.

I’d recommend Cullen Cable.  They’re in your price range and offer a trial period so very low risk option.  Best of luck.

I don’t have them sitting on anything special though. Just the wood stands I built for them.

Now that I see this, I think you’d be better off investing in some good metal stands that can be filled with sand or lead shot.  Stands can make a big difference and may well help tighten up the bass quite a bit.  I’d do this before throwing $$$ at cables.  FWIW...
