Power cord for tube preamp w/SF Cremona Auditors?


I've recently been agonizing on a power cord for my Apex Pinnacle Preamp/Headphone amp. As a preamp, the original Shunyata Anaconda Alphas are perfect, just mellowed out enough up top to take the brashness off my Sonus Faber Cremona Auditors' tweeters, making these speakers sound magical, and the bass is nice and controlled.
Unfortunately, the bass is too soft with this cord for headphone usage.

I have tried these cords, and none sound as perfect a match for the speakers as the Anaconda Alphas, as they all sound a bit fatiguing or forward or brash:
Shunyata Anaconda CX,
Stealth Dream (preamp version),
TG SLVR & 688s,
Telwire.
I think there is some synergy going on with the (same generation) Shunyata Anaconda VX on my EMM XDS1 cd player.

Query whether you wish to spend money on a diff cable...which may change the sound thru your Cremonas...or change headphones.
You know what? that seems like a fantastic set up. You've done a great job...and enjoy it! What phones are you using? I like the Sennheiser 580, 600 series. You may as well. Super comfortable, natural sound...good luck and pls keep us posted.
