Thanks Nickway.

I have just entered a rather long post under "best CD player under $1000?" explaining my experience with upgraded power cords this past weekend.

I'm pretty sure now that I can hear differences between different types of cables. But the most important question is "is it worth it?".

I've decided to keep the DH Labs BL-1 interconnect (probably do a bit of bargining first!) and I will not take the $90 power cord - too little gain for too much money.
