I recommend a conventional unshielded power cord plugged into an audiophile power line conditioner. Shielding tends to be designed to protect a component/system from airborne RFI/EMI. Filtering noise from the power grid via a power line conditioner is advisable. Conversely, a shielded power cord can also be beneficial when used with a noisy digital component in order to protect adjacent audio gear from airborne noise radiated from a potentially polluted power cord, but poorly designed shielding can do more harm than good when implemented for that type of application. YMMV
