Proper order of power cables and conditioner?


Here's something I've wondered about for a while:

Is it better to use one good power cable (e.g., Nordost Brahma) between the wall socket and conditioner (e.g. PS Audio Quintet)and then use the standard power cables that come with components (e.g.,amp, CD player, etc.) between the conditioner and the components

OR

Should we use good power cables between the conditioner and the amp, etc., (i.e., one for each component) and just use a standard power cable between the socket and conditioner?

The first option is what I see most people use while the second option, while more expensive, seems to me better provide the benefits of both the conditioner and the good cables. Your thoughts or experiences?

Experimentation will prove to you the money should be spend on the cables after your conditioner. Do yourself a very BIG favor and 'try' an MIT networked cable for your digital, used for ~$220 ; the extra isolation benefits everything else as well.
