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.

Hi Tony. I actually posted the review on my first day lol. Why should the Shunyata Everest be off limits to anyone? It's like your saying it only works if million dollar boxes are plugged into it. Surely it should elevate anything attatched to it? And it did in my system. I just prefer things with the Veridion cables and power strip and I genuinely feel they are worthy of your attention. I'm a paying customer who took advantage of their 30 day money back guarantee. 

I can't comment on the Veridion process, I can only account for the positive impact it's having in my system. I listen to music via qobuz at least a couple of hours a day and I'm very familiar with certain musical passages. How they sound and make me feel etc. I can hear changes, even in my mickey mouse setup lol. I've never looked into where QSA Lanedri is situated, nor do I care. Cheers

Good grief.

 

This post is still alive and well, but others get shut down for dubious reasons.

Hey, my comment was deleted! 

I don't even know why, all I did was encourage the shill team to explore a certain healthy living option 😇

"Why should the Shunyata Everest be off limits to anyone? "

I never said it was off limits to anyone.

My point is that 99.999% of people with the price point of your components, would spend $25K on a power conditioner and cable. That, combined with the fact that you were sent the components free to try and only joined this forum 6 days ago, well colour me sceptical.

I don’t care if the components cost $100 or $100,000 - but it is an insult to this hobby and the community to place them the way shown in the system and claim to hear a difference between a well regarded component and another one which has not proven itself in the first place. 
And not to mention that he is a first time poster and starts with bashing a well regarded product. I NEVER trust folks who make such a start in ANY community.
