Do power cords make a difference?
No, unless they have a manufacturing defect. 
How do you organize your LPs?
Don't, just file them away as purchased, with an collection number I assign. I do have a data base, organized initially by collection number but can be sorted any which way. 
Ultrasonic Record Cleaner +++ New Model V-8 Clean
These units will fly off the shelf when the price point becomes $2,000. At most, there is $500 in materials in the Klaudio unit. I am sure Harry is currently working on a similar unit that with his distribution and marketing power will aid Klaudio... 
What to replace CAL ALPHA dac
Stay with the Cal, one of which I have and still enjoy. I have other players, hi end Sony (5800) and Oppo (105), but still feel the Cal has great sound and a warmth, which current DAC's miss. I suggest upgrade of the tubes of the CAL might be a be...

Not possible, at least until current IRS investigations are complete. Don't want rough club members exposed. 
If you solicit offers, shouldn't you respond?

sound at the record store
You are totally confused in not knowing that a record store cares nothing about how any record sounds. Hey, they are in business to buy and sell, not listen. Reminds me of care dealers, who just sell the 'deal', forget about the car itself.

Sony XA5400ES vsCambridge Audio 840C???
Sony has a much better warranty and its service is way ahead of Cambridge. 
Are some of us losing our minds over upgrades??
In general, upgrades, offer little bang for the buck. That 'bang' is sonic improvement in the sound. As for the 'return on investment' comments, I would say just plain silly. Audio is not a place where people buy things with a view to what they ca... 
how much to pay for this sensational setup?
Not more then $3000. Since you are not into audio, treat it like a used car being taken in at a dealer.
