Does Gryphon Diablo 300 Benefit With A Costly Mains Power Cable?

Can any Gryphon Diablo 300 owners share your experiences if there is a noticeable or significant improvement or difference when a costly mains power cable is used with the amp? Or it's only a minor difference? 

I have tried some rather costly power cables such as Furutech DPS4.1/FI-50(R) NCF and Acrolink Mexcel and comparison revealed some minor differences. I'm thinking of trying a Shunyata Alpha-X NR. I would appreciate any experiences.

An old SR A/C Master Coupler improved dynamics on my Diablo 300. The swedish Gryphon distributor uses Nordost PCs.

Give a call to Snake River Audio and check out a Takshaka PC, I think it may surprise you and is reasonably priced compared to some of the others mentioned. Jonny offers a money back guarantee. He puts 200 hours on a cable before it leaves his shop.

I would think an amp of that caliber (or any component really) would benefit from at least a halfway decent aftermarket power cable. That seems pretty straight forward to me.

+1 great performance/price. Purchased 2 trying to reach AQ Dragon level but at a more affordable price
