The $250 power cables and $600 power strip that dethroned my $10k Shunyata Everest
Hello fellow audiophiles. I've been using products from QSA Lanedri who I believe offer the best price to performance ratio on the market today for their power and signal cables. You may have heard of Quantum Science Audio fuses and might even have some installed in your system. QSA Lanedri have perfected this technology/treatment and are now offering it in their power and signal products. The line of products in particular is called Veridion Discovery which is their most affordable line. I currently own 2 Veridion Discovery power strips (daisy chained), 8 power cables, 3 ethernet cables, 1 DC cable. Initially I was sent a power and ethernet cable to try and was so impressed I ordered more including the power strips. I have been comparing their power cables to much more expensive cables from Audioquest and Furutech. I've also been comparing their power strip to my Shunyata Everest power conditioner and found I prefer the Discovery power strip. Infact I'm in the process of trading in my Shunyata Everest and corresponding Sigma X power cable for either a better integrated amplifier or speakers. Once you pair up Discovery power cables with the Discovery power strip things improve dramatically. Not only does audio improve but picture quality and home cinema improves also and will challenge anything at any price. I will say the Discovery line requires a few days of continuous use or "burn in" period before proper evaluation. I compared their Ethernet cables to the likes of Audioquest Diamond and Wireworld Platinum Starlight 8 and again preferred the Discovery line. Through the Discovery products music sounds cleaner and clearer with a heightened sense of realism. This also applies to film and TV. Compared to the Shunyata Everest picture quality is now cleaner with more vibrant colours. Motion and panning shots are improved with less stutter. I will add that I have the power strips on Auva EQ CSA1 isolation footers. All of my equipment is sitting on Auva EQ footers which I found were better than the Isoacoustic Oreo footers I had previously. The Discovery products look very basic and don't scream high end but from my experience they can go toe to toe with the best at very affordable prices! They offer a 30 day money back guarantee for peace of mind. Definitely worth a look. Cheers.

“Dogs stop to sniff every turd. We don't have to.” Right, dogs stop for every scent, but humans can simply move along. I’m not sure why anyone would be unfriendly toward folks who are just sharing what they’ve learned or experienced. The way I see it, everyone’s experience has value. Peace and enjoy 🦃 day with your loved ones! |
I will apologies for being negative on this without trying it. Perhaps recovering from 3 surgeries in the last 6 days influenced my initial reaction. Perhaps?
Perhaps I can muster up enough positive energy to “trial” this near supernaturally resurrected power cord. Ha! Maybe it is the real deal, but more detail about how this is possible would help my ability to believe. For now I am an unbeliever, but open to learning. Yes @willgolf has credibility and a track record here on Agon that deserves notice. |
I have been using the Swiss Digital Fuse Box for 3 years now on all of my components and No boutique fuse comes close; the SR purple was my less favorite of the SR fuses, found the mids to be over exaggerated and weak bass but we all have different components, hear things differently and prefer a different sound signature.

Funny, it seems if something doesn't cost an arm and leg, it's a cheap, piece of what-ever, too good to be true. On the other hand, if it cost a bank account or house note it's just a piece of wire with some shielding and a rip-off. I say whatever works and what you're willing to fork out is where it ends, we're not here to please everyone's tastes or budget. |
