Thanks in advance.Belden is spot on. No complaints from me whatsoever.

Difficult to answer without knowing a, the required current draw of the individual units and b, the type and value of fuse selected (Synergistic, AMR, Furutech or MRCU Rhodium-plated?) :rolleyes:

Jesting apart, based on my experience over many years of bought/DIY mains cables of decent gauge and made of silver, silver-plated and UHPC-OFC and, assuming you don't have the ears of an angel, I'd go with the Belden 19364 and use the money saved on source material.

Belden 19364 + https://www.hificollective.co.uk/power_connectors/hd_power_ms328.html and then one of these https://www.hificollective.co.uk/power_connectors/ya_audio_copper_iec_plug.html and you should have a perfectly good plug. I use these in my 2 set ups.

I also use the Belden with MSHD mains plugs.

I found the supra cable a bit bright.
