Upgrading interconnects, where to start

A generic question on upgrading interconnects - should I start with the CD-player to pre-amp, or pre-amp to power-amp. Which of these two will give me the most sonic differences?
THanks for your insights

Ok, what I experienced is that the new interconnect's between CD-player and pre-amp produce high's which were too sharp although the rest seemed to have opened up with more details and a more defined imaging. Now I put them between the pre-amp and amp and the sound is much more balanced.
