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 try to keep my system simple. 

Star configuration outlet for All your electronic, and this is Best direct from the wall if possible. 

Start with your power distributør if you not have wall outlet star configuration. Your outlet distributor should then be a star configuration. 

Then Source, i have a cd transport and a DAC. The DAC is the most importent of the TWO but Source first. 

My integrated amp next. If i have had pre+amp combo, then the pre first and amp. second. 

Then my speakers (Quad)

This is my experience.
