Power cord upgrade

I want to upgrade power cords for my streamer, Aurender A15 which currently has a Shunyata v14 digital.

And Puritan 156 which has the classic cord it comes with.

I believe in system synergy, so I am leaning towards Transparent, and/or Audioquest.

I have ARC ref5se with the Transparent Reference, and ref75se with the AQ Hurricane.

Guess my thought is the streamer and 156 PC are maybe a bottleneck. Won't know without trying, right? I am satisfied with the over all sound now, so looking for more of it. Make any sense??

I appreciate everyone’s input, and at the end of the day I know it’s all about what sounds best in my system.

And yeah, trying every cord that’s out there would be nice.

Certain brands come up more frequently, such as AQ and Transparent, and I like that for a good starting platform.

@audioman58 Could you please clarify that statement, that the Tornado is perfect for that? Perfect for the streamer dac?

@pindac Well said.

I believe the naysayers systems just are not resolving enough to hear the differences. I know I started out that way. Proof was in the pudding once I made a major jump in equipment.

Again appreciate everyone's input, and am surprised at how long this thread stayed alive.
