which component should i put the better cable on?

I have two different power cords one costing $250.00 the other $1000.00. My question is which one should i use on which component? Should i put the better powercord on the amp because it uses more power because it is a amplifier or should i put the better powercord on my pre-amp, and if so on the pre-amp why!? I would appreciate any input please! Thanks for looking!

Ultimately you have to decide where it sounds better, but my two cents would be to put the best cord on the source. Componants down stream will never add what was missing at the start.
Another issue might be the application for which the cord was designed. I have "front end" cords and "amp" cords that are designed to work best in thier certain application.
Give 'em a listen!
