The $250 power cables and $600 power strip that dethroned my $10k Shunyata Everest

@roper ,

Interesting. Then how do you reconcile that with the direct quote from Anas about having to halt the A/B comparison because it wasn’t working? You’ll note that every single response that contradicts what the owner of QSA himself stated was written by his groupies over on WBF.  Heck, even the owner Anas directly contradicts himself!

First it was this:

However, upon switching to the Discovery Veridion cables, the audience exhibited spontaneous expressions of astonishment. Capturing these reactions on video would have immortalized the moment, a lesson for future demonstrations. It was a truly unique experience.

Then this:

For anyone wondering why, this is actually one of the quirks of our technology. The effect doesn’t disappear the moment you remove the Veridion-treated cables or components—it lingers in the system for a few hours before things gradually drift back to normal. It fades on an exponential curve. This is the same reason we had to pause the A/B tests at AXPONA: we only had one set of speakers, so swapping between treated and untreated cables was limiting the A/B comparison.

So, which one is it? Everyone was astonished by the A/B testing or they halted the A/B testing because of the ’lingering’ effect?? It can’t be both. You see why I keep harping about the validity of any of this. I understand the guys who bought his cables are happy, I think that’s great, their ears, their rigs, their money. But, there's something very sketchy about all of this.

I also understand you’re under no obligation to answer any of my questions to you, but I’m genuinely curious as to your thoughts on this.

Ok, I'm done.

I'm tired of exuding negative waves. I'm off to say fun, foolish nonsense on other threads to balance my vibe. Enjoy your cables.

FYI, the relationship between Quantum Science Audio (QSA) and QSA Lanedri", per AI:

is quantum science audio and qsa lanedri the same company'

No, Quantum Science Audio (QSA) and QSA Lanedri are not the same company, but they are closely related brands that collaborate. 

• Quantum Science Audio (QSA) is an established audio company known for producing fuses, outlets, switches, and other audio accessories using its proprietary "Musical Metal Molecule Alignment Technology" (MMMAT) and "Metal Active Technology" (MAT).
• QSA Lanedri is a newer, independent brand founded by Anas Lanedri in collaboration with Steven, the founder of QSA. The purpose of the QSA Lanedri brand is to apply QSA's core technology to high-end audio cables, such as power cords, interconnects, and ethernet cables, which were not previously offered by the original QSA company. 

Essentially, QSA Lanedri licenses and uses the core QSA technology to expand its application to a wider range of audio components, specifically the entire audio cable

Like you say I wasn't there so I can't verify or reconcile anything. That being said, I would probably respond with the same skepticism as you have, which is warranted. But after reading other user's experiences with the cables I took the plunge. The money back guarantee also eased that decision. I understand the frustration of not having complete transparency, but I don't think he will "spill the beans" on his own intellectual property. If it becomes patented then perhaps we'll get to know more.

I’m very satisfied with the impact the Discovery Series has had on my setup, especially considering the value at its price point.

You cannot “think” your way to determining whether something sounds better or not. Don’t be an engineerphile.  Be an audiophile. Let your test equipment be your ears. Hold off on expressing opinions of equipment you haven’t even heard. Be, you know, nice.
