Power Cord Recommendations

I'm currently using stock power cords for the following components :

McCormack DNA 0.5 Amp..
Modwright SWL 9.0 Pre-amp..
Rega Saturn CDP..

Power cords need to be flexible due to lack of shelf space..
Is there ONE power cord that I could use for all 3 components for a DIY project ?

I've used both Kaplan Cables and Triode Wire Labs on my McCormack amp. The Kaplan is a little warmer sounding, but could be a bit much depending on the tubes in your Modwright. The TWL cable is clean, transparent and works well if you are using warmer sounding tubes in your preamp.

Both are excellent cables, depending on the sound you are after.

I just got some Supra AC cable for DIY, it is very flexible. Very reasonably priced.

I've had good results with Neotech NEP-3002 $19.95 a foot but they often sell it at 15 to 20% off.
