Upgrading power cable to AQ Niagara 5000?


I have an Audioquest Niagara 5000 - and have found it to be very good.  I am curious - since the unit is highly effective at noise reduction - would it really benefit to have an upgraded power cable serving it? Isn’t that the idea behind upgraded power cords - they’re better at filtering and/or not adding noise.  But, if the Niagara is doing that, any difference from an upgraded cord?

I know I should audition for myself but I no longer live near a dealer who can help me with those auditions so I’d have to buy and return - a hassle for me - and for the dealer.

Thoughts?
Happy holidays to my fellow audiogoners.

I have a 20A Audioquest Hurricane for sale now on Audiogon. Perfect for the Niagara.

I now own the Niagara 7000, 2-1200's and a 1000.

On my 7000 I am using the Niagara Dragon. Awesome combo. Really brings out the power of the 7000.

On my other units I am using my homemade 12-gauge Solid silver with NCF fittings.

I guess what I am saying is even though the Niagara power conditioner are great in their own right adding a very hi quality power cord does provide benefit.
