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.

Some people claim extraordinary health benefits are to be had from drinking one’s urine. Some people believe a $5 power cable from Monoprice sounds markedly better when they pay $250 for it. The beauty of the last one is that the seller straight-out tells you upfront - if you send them $250, they’ll send you a $5 Monoprice cable!

@tyray good point, I de-controversified my last post :) |
@milpai I don't know Willgolf other than from posts here and on WhatsBestForum,but your conspiracy theory that his post is due to a hacker is off base. His system outline on WBF has everything updated with his present system including what he stated vis a vis QSA. if you doubt what I'm saying join WBF and look him up. He did state that he doesn't frequent Audiogon any more so why would he bother updating his system here. |
@tyray it is generally a good thing on forums to only speaker for yourself - especially when you do not know others personally. When people make tall claims, I would expect them to demo it. That is why I do not trust most here who make tall claims without a system page. Willgolf seem to be an exception and since he already has a system page, it should be easy for him to post a pic. It is hard for me to believe that he has thousands of dollars invested in the components, but he decided to consider the paltry amount of his Inakustik power conditioner as a substantial "savings" by replacing with a far cheaper power strip.
Moderators close a thread if it gets political and not because it is going off topic. No way has the thread gone off the rails.
@facten I never said his account WAS hacked - but maybe there was a possibility. Based on your finding, looks like it was not?
Isn't it strange then that he comes over here to post on this particular topic? Wonder why he wasted a few minutes to make a couple of posts here. My point is - if you have supported something and love it so much that you want to share with the community, show it and convince folks - especially when you are going from $7k to $600. |
