You mean on the 110V AC side? Well, you can of course buy some $400 
power cables for audiophiles. Or if you don't feel like pushing some 
extra money into the economy, just connect the stuff so that it looks 
nice... Personally, I'd go for the latter. ;-)

Just make sure you keep signal cables away from power cables, keep all 
your equipment on the same earth potential to avoid ground hum, and 
you're done. Everything else is fine for those who believe in fairy dust...
