Aftermarket power cord

I'm wondering if its better to connect an aftermarket powercord directly from a wall socket to my preamp, or from my MonsterCable HTS5000 power center? I have read that its better to have power directly from the wall socket to a power amp, does this also pertain to a preamp? I'm also wondering if I will receive the sonic benefits I'm looking for if the power is passed through the power center and then the aftermarket cord?

I use a HTS-2000 with aftermarket cords to my power amps, but use PS audio P300 with aftermarket cords to my preamp.
Direct from wall to power amp sounds harsh; try it, your set up may sound different.
