there are some very good info/suggestions from the panel.
You are wise to start w/ replacing power cord(s) (PC) first.
This is the 1st step and the proper way to elevate your system's performance.
I am a "cable" guy first and foremost. Cabling is most certainly the over-looked/forgotten component. Very important to get it right.
For your gear w/ a stock PC and you wish to replace it, an IEC connector is required in doing so. I am a big fan of Transparent Audio cables/cords.
I would place them on the amp and pre-amp. Then, listen for several weeks minimum prior to any more additions. Follow the advice on the Ayre piece. Also, consult other Furman owners prior to replacing that PC as well.
You are off to an excellent start! Have fun and enjoy the music.
