Not everything we do w respect to change makes a positive difference - I have heard Elrod power cables make a monumental difference in one system in particular- great to have a pair laying around :-)

but I can say in my search to better the Ayre reference cord on my VX-R more than a few came up short - sometimes it takes bunch of trial and listening

enjoy the journey and the music !!!
Richard Vandersteen assured me that their supplied power cords are all you need, and you wouldn't get improved performance with others.  I just happened to have a couple of Elrod cords sitting unused, so what the heck, I gave them a try, and was very glad that I did.  I definitely found it worth using them.

I'm surprised by Millercarbon's reply, as he states in another current thread that everything makes a difference - - a sentiment that I agree with.
Thanks everyone for your input I will have to borrow some from John
millercabon I don't know any company that give you anything but an off the shelf power cable for any component 

Enjoy the music and be safe 
But seriously in the interest of actually helping people search this subject on the Gon and several owners have tried a variety of low profile cords with a variety of wires with mixed results. Have at it DIY

Two data point Charlie.....

Vandersteen asked me what length power cord I needed for all four of them your mileage may vary
Wait a minute. Wait just a doggone minute! So you're saying, Vandersteen shipped their speakers with ordinary power cords when better ones were available? 
I had a different experience and Stringreen.  I swapped in some Elrod Statement cables in place of the Vandersteen supplied ones on my Quatro's, and I definitely got better defined and more impactful bass coming from the powered subs.  But what shocked me was how it all helped the upper bass/lower midrange region, too.  I just could hear more into the mix in that critical range, and with more "musical finesse", as it were.  And this was with the use of some Voodoo Cable AC extenders to get through those damned heat sink fins (they don't allow beefy connectors).

I think it might just depend upon the cords?  It is clearly worth exploring, IME.
Yes.....I tried, but their factory power cables are as good as any "high end" cable you may try.  I have 5A's
