You'll get alot of differing opinion on this but I've had a DAC1 for one year; tried a couple of power cables and find exceedingly small differences between the stock cable (which IS shielded) and moderately priced aftermarket cables. I think the reason for this is that this little gem has an adequate power supply to begin with.

Where I find great differences is with interconnects. I believe this is due to the DAC1 being very neutral and highly detailed.

Anyway, experimentation nevers hurts. Your experiences may be wholly different.
