Opinions on differing power cable for amp and preamp


Hello All,

Looking for your thoughts/advice/opinions. I currently have a Rotel RSP-1582 preamp and I am using a Transparent High Performance Power cable. My amp is a Simaudio Titan HT200 5 channel amp using a Shunyata Delta NR 20 amp power cord. Better to trade the Shunyata Delta for a Transparent Premium 20 amp power cord? Does that make more sense for synergy purposes or does it really not make a difference mixing different power cables from different manufacturers? I should also mention all my speaker cable and interconnects are Transparent Plus. 

Thanks all in advance....

What you're essentially asking about is the "full loom" idea.  Like just about everything else on this site, it hasn't been determined one way or another.  Some people swear by it, others swear at it.  Some will prefer different brands for ICs, SCs, and PCs.  There have been threads where people compensate for some feature of an IC (between source and preamp) with a different brand elsewhere (between preamp and power amp).  As has been said, no one on this site can tell you definitively about your issue.  Experiment--but try to make sure everything is returnable!
