Default Upgrade power cable

Hi all

Seeking advice as I wish to upgrade my power cables.

Currently I have a PS8 fed by a Venom HC 20amp. This in turn feeds my components which are all powered by a mix of Shunyata cables, Venom HC, Venom Digital, Alpha HC and Alpha Digitals.

I am wondering where the best bang for buck lies if I was to upgrade to say a Alpha NR cable?

I am thinking from the wall to the PS 8?

What are your thoughts?

Yes, that would be the best place to put it.
