If you want to explore the benefits power cords bring, I would start out with an entry-level Shunyata, e.g. Venom 14 or HC. I have three WW power cords, including a Silver Electra, and in my experience, it is outperformed by the Shunyata Venom. The WW cords are good cords and bring an improvement, undoubtedly, but I find the Shunyatas to outperform them. I'm running a mix of different Shunyatas from Venom through to Zitron Cobra throughout my audio system, and using the WW cords for other applications like home theatre, the REL sub, etc.
