Power cord recommendation for a dac?


Need a power cord for my new MHDT Orchid tube dac. Looking for something rich and detailed and absolutely glare/grain free, 500 or less, used or new -- something especially palpable in vocal and mid-bass frequencies.

When I first read about upgrading power cords, I was skeptical.  I tried anyway, and was surprised that it could make a subtle difference.  However, I thought that the asymptote was quickly reached—I couldn’t hear any improvement after the $100/meter point.  I haven’t really listened critically to power cords in the last decade or so.  I buy them based on features—I favor them being somewhat flexible and gripping tightly, and since I have had hum problems in the past I want them shielded.  Currently, I use a mix of PS Audio and Pangea.  My two cents.
