Prioritizing Power Cable Upgrades by System Component.

I'm digging into the world of power cables and it is kind of amazing. The promise that a good cable can bring along with its price is both exciting and staggering.

There are several components that need some kind of power cable and upgrading them, for me, needs to be done in steps.

For those that have upgraded power cables, how would you prioritize between the pre-amp (tube), power amp (ss) and powered sub...and possibly even the DAC?

I use an Acoustic Zen Tsumani "Plus  power cable with my CD player: an Ayre CX7 MP which is supposedly my best source as recommended by an audio specialist

. The other components are a Conrad Johnson PV14L SE pre-amp and a P.S. Audio S300 power amp both use Pangea quality power cords  The Acoustic Zen cord is at least 15 years old, also awkward and thick and difficult to plug into the Furman power line conditioner.  I might move it over to the power amp or want to replace it with something newer. 

Cheers to all; It's great to be back on these forums
