Vandersteen 5a's

I finally moved up from my 3a Sigs to 5a's. Wow :-) I am using Alex Peychev's Denon 3910 redesign/reconstruct direct to Theta Citadels, top of the line AQ wires with KK Palladians, Alan Kafton's Power Wing, and an assortment of meaningful tweaks. Any Dick Hardesty influence is coincidental....lol
I have yet to bring in an expert to dial them in, and am 200 hours into break-in. Question to 5a owners: How have y'all tackled the power cord situation in light of the IEC? How necessary is it to obtain a high end PC for 100hz. and down?
Thanks in advance :-)

Richard Vandersteen told me the ones included are perfectly suitable.

I tried 3 types of PCs on my subs anyway, and found no difference.

My opinion is that the 5A power supply is very robust and very capable of handling heavy loads over sustained periods. Plus, there is less detail under 160 hz to detect subtle differences.
