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.

Understood. YMMV, I always make short videos before I change the gears and cables. So, I can hear it later. Alex/Wavetouch audio |
@bigtwin , Surely you jest! I’ve practiced Hatha Yoga for years using various Asanas which Asanas are the physical postures of yoga, which can include standing, sitting, reclining, stretching, and inverted poses. Originally referring to a ’seat’ for meditation, the term now broadly applies to any yoga posture and is practiced to improve strength, flexibility, balance, focus and mindfulness. Asana practice prepares the body for meditation, promotes physical and mental well-being, and is considered a key component of Hatha and modern yoga traditions. I know this is not a surprise to you but there are many a older folk here on Agon who don’t get around as good as they used to and a few have even passed on, so I would postulate that some, not all - may actually practice chair yoga! Hey, even my own town’s library which is about two walking blocks from my place has/offers free chair yoga classes! Sitting in a chair contemplating, and quietly listening to music for a period of time can be considered a form of yoga! And guess what? Dancing and jamming to music can be considered a form of yoga also! Who’d a thunk that! Remember, it’s not nice to make fun of the elderly.

Something does not add up here despite claims by @willgolf and others. While I do acknowledge that willgolf's post was the only one that supported this product, I also recollect from a couple of years ago that a few member logins were hacked. I see that their MAIN audio (not home theater one) still shows the Inakustik conditioner. I also noted that his MAIN description includes "QSA Lanedri power cords and speaker cables". Has anyone cared to note that this company also has $18k power cables and $6k speaker cables? If @willgolf can show me some pictures of his MAIN system with these $200 cables and $600 power strip, that would support the claim. As for the OP - who in the right mind buys a power conditioner as the MOST expensive component in their system? And that too when the system is in such a tiny space, with a huge woofer next to it? And in the pictures they posted, the carpet and furniture is not even matching the listening space or the space that the Everest is shown in. Of course they can say that the Everest is in a different room OR they changed the carpet and furniture. Hard to believe the product being marketed here. |
