Recommend Power Cable for Aragon 4004MK2 amp

I have an Aragon 4004 MK2 amp. It sounds very good, but I still have the stock AC power cord. Would it be worth it to upgrade this cable?? and what improvements can I expect?? Need recommendations from other owners for a modestly priced power cable, that is $100-$250. Don't want to spend the money if it is only going to produce "marginal" gains. Looking to achieve tighter bass and a more coherent soundstage from this type of upgrade. Or,is that asking too much from a new power cable. Thank you, Jim

Rotarius, yes, the connectors make a big difference. Simply 'refreshing' your connections by plugging 'n unplugging can make a difference. But it's definitely not all there is to the PC phenomenon.

I was a power cable disbeliever for years. I intentionally avoided doing any comparisons, for fear I'd hear a difference where there "shouldn't" be one.
Then I bought a piece of gear that didn't include a pc, so I was forced to buy one.
And that was that.
Comparison to the other 'stock' pc's in my system revealed that power cables can make an extraordinary difference, perhaps only surpassed by interconnects.
Anyone who wants to stick their fingers in their ears and shout "lalalalalala" is simply missing out on the improvements a good pc can make.
