Power cord for low-watt tube amp?

I'm about to take delivery on a 7-watt push-pull EL84 amp in full triode. Just wondering whether there are any power cords particularly well-suited for a lower-powered amp like this? What's the latest thinking on whether power cords are less important for smaller amps like this?

I found asking them is not always productive. Some have tried a few, others very little. Some leave it up to the customer and don't even supply a cord.

An EL84 in PP triode, please tell us more about this amp and feel free to add pics too.  For several years, I had a modified Conn organ amp that ran 6BG6's in PP triode for 8 wpc.  One of the best sounding amps I ever had

look at the Triode Lab website. 
they make an amazing power cord in support of their low watt tube amps. I tried it and was immediately sold. I use the on my 45 tube monoblocks and my preamp.

Interestingly I preferred different cords for my digital devices.
