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.

@audiom3 , I'd be interested in that as well since this is what I came up with in a search:
No idea if that's correct or not, but it does make me curious as to the answer you may or may not get. |
@thecarpathian Yes, it is indeed true. Had my old OLED taken apart right in front of me. The tech had to unscrew the power cable from the MB inside the OLED in order to install a new MB (Main Board). |
@audiom3 I purchased a $6.88 adapter from Amazon. This allowed me to essentially extend my LG OLED’s captive power cord with a Discovery Veridion. This is it. I understand that there is now a treated adapter that can be purchased from QSA Lanedri for $50. I will be getting one of those. Prior to using that Veridion cord, I used a QSA Jitter plug at the end of that TV’s captive power cord. This was actually my first QSA treated product as I didn’t believe the claims and wanted to see and hear it for myself. The improvements were obvious so I got hooked. This was long before the Discovery series appeared. |

@kennyb thanks for the info. Interesting that all you did was add to the existing built-in PC... Did you then plug it into the wall or do you have a power strip or conditioner? I have an AQ Niagara 5000 which definitely made a difference in PQ. |
