Here you go. If I can assemble five homemade power cords without burning my house down (been two years!) and get great sound, so can you. Trust me. The answer is that nobody makes better power cord wire than this stuff; http://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/index.php?p=catalog&mode=search&search_in=name&search_str=lorad
The wire is far more important than the connectors. My advice is to skip Oyaide and the like, and go with base model Furutech (still not cheap). I tried my hand at shrink tubing and did only a midling job so my cables are not much to look at, but I am sure you could do better.
