System-building around a dCS P8i?

Digital Drive

Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

I can't believe I've gotten to this point but I'm now awaiting delivery of a dCS P8i and wondering how many other dCS owners are around here, I'm sure it's a relatively small club. ;)
I have to ask any dCS owners, what kinds of interconnects, power cords, and power conditioning are you using? I'm going to be using mine in a headphone system (a high-end electrostatic one) and was wondering what scale of cables and power conditioning to use with it. I've spent no previous research time into the high-end area of the market so I'm looking for ideas - right now I'm looking at possibly a PS Audio Quintessence for power conditioning and Siltech SPX-30 for an AC cord. My current interconnects are Analysis Plus Silver Oval (RCA and XLR). I know there's no single path to synergy but am I barking up any wrong trees here? Any alternate suggestions? And should I bother to upgrade my Analysis Plus?
