Power Cords--Your Preference?

spending a lot of time auditioning power cords---this is what I currently know---I seem to prefer the Kimber Palladian PK 10 to just about anything else I've heard---my Cardas Golden Reference was not even in the running.

Would be interested to hear your feedback about your favorite power cables----also, yet to find anything for CD player that improves the sound--even Palladian seemed a bit too much for CD and better suited to my PRE or Power Amp--- all CJ equipment. Thoughts?

My buddy tried the Burly in his system and was very disappointed. He burned it in for a couple of hundred hours and told me they were rolled of in the highs pretty bad. I've heard good things about them, but his system and mine are simular sonically so it scared me off.
