Flexible power cord for Ayre Codex


I am often frustrated when I try to connect wrist-thick power cords to my audio gear, but muddle by.  I just got an Ayre Codex, with its diminuative enclosure and it rests at near the top of my 5' audio rack.  My weighty power cords result in it canting one way or the other.  

Can you gents suggest a very good power cord that is relatively thin and more importantly flexible to solve my problem?  I'd budget up to maybe $300 for it.  Let me know you have something you want to part with... I just looked in my closet and I must have a couple dozen IC's and maybe a dozen power cords just taking up space.  Thanks your insights and recommendations.

The Codex has negligible power requirements. Any 18AWG cord will be more than sufficient, and not present any undue strain on the Codex chassis. 
As a rule of thumb, go with the lightest gauge power cable for DACs, CD players, tuners, etc.  The noise rejection in the power supplies benefits from it. 
That would do the job. The only improvement I’d suggest is the same cable with a grounded shield.
