Bojack is correct. This issue has been discussed a lot in previous threads in the archives and there have been a lot of varying answers through the years. I'm thinking since this question has been asked a lot people didn't like the answers they got.
There are camps that have found the best power cord should go from the wall outlet to the power conditioner. Some have found they got the best improvement by putting their main music source (CDP, DAC, Record Player etc etc.) Unfortuneately you are going to have to experiment to see which piece of equipment works best with the Zu Bok. Did anyone @ Zu specify what components they thought benefited the most with the Bok power cord?
This is the stupid thing I did. I didn't want to bother with trying different power cords on different components. I didn't have the patience to keep switching out the cables so I saved money and bought multiple copies of the same power cord and used it on all my components. My source, preamp, and amp all have the same power cord. My power conditioner is an old one and already had a captive power cord so I didn't have to worry about it. Luckily it all worked out and my system sounds good to me. If it didn't I'd be screwed. Good luck with the search.
