I own a Furutech TCS21 powercord with 38 (G) schuko and 15 ( R) IEC. The cable is resolving without any sharpness. I also had a TSC31. TCS21 is less refined and more forward sounding than TCS31. 31 is more “polite” compared to the TCS21. I have not been able to compare with the Furutech cable you own.
I replaced the TCS21 cable by a Shunyata alpha EF to feed my d220. Shunyata Alpa is better resolving and makes the treble less forward. I think this may suit the 804d3 well (I am home-demoing the 804d3 at the moment).
I find TCS21 and 31 very good cables considering there price and would go for TCS31 with 804d3.
Or, if you want to spend more money, go for Shunyata alpha. I cannot comment on the delta ef since I have no experience with this cable.
