QSA LANEDRI Series

[QSA-LANEDRI]

A quick reminder: all our cables are directional. In the Discovery series, the QSA Lanedri logo and serial number are always placed near the connector that should be connected to the destination component. For adapters, follow the arrow pointing toward the destination component. Ensuring the correct direction is crucial for achieving optimal performance.

While it may sound like a sales pitch, an end-to-end connection with our cables across both analogue and digital chains truly elevates performance to a new level. Each cable enhances the impact to an unprecedented degree—without diminishing returns. Many users have already experienced and confirmed these results.

Priority should be given to upstream components, as improvements flow downstream. In our findings, the router delivers the highest impact—surpassing even the music server. With all the ongoing R&D tracks, we managed to prioritize the introduction of the Discovery Veridion RG11 Coax Cable.

After the exceptionally positive experience with a full loom of Discovery power cords and ethernet cables in the speaker system, I bought a full loom of Discovery power cords, ethernet cables and the power strip (installed after my Ansuz power distributor per Anas' direction) for my separate headphone system located in a different room.

Result? I'm getting the exact same amazing boost in clarity and spatial aspects I experienced in the speaker system and no sonic downsides- I am not finding any weaknesses. The "presence" factor... feeling like you are in the room with the musicians is significantly increased.

I've found the sound gets fuller and more fleshed out through the burn-in phase. Compared to my existing cords/cables? Tens of thousands of dollars of power cords and ethernet cables, easily knocked out by these cheap as chips Discovery cords.

As an added bonus, no more wrestling with heavy anaconda-sized power cords.

I just bought the new coaxial cable, DC extension and headphone cable extension.

Once word gets out, I just don't see how any other cable company will be able to compete. Perhaps QSA will end up licensing this tech?

For me, the Discovery series is the biggest bang for the buck I've ever experienced in this hobby.

Edit: I forgot to mention, the earlier comment from romaz about the added impact of running a full loom of Discovery power cords is true in my experiments. Adding the power strip enhances the effect even further. I am very glad I bought the power strips.

I recently received couple of the discovery PCs and the ethernet chord.

Preliminary impressions after replacing the previous PCs (QSAL gamma infinity) that were powering the Vinnie Rossi L2iSE + L2 DAC and SR4T (that was powering the Fiber to USB) which are the two closest to my DAC/Amp, sound is more open and sweeter and also more refined at the same time, just the right balance. Loving how the vocals are sounding and the mids in general. I am not missing anything. If it will improve from here, I have nothing more to say!

My ethernet is Fiber to USB to ethernet, so I just replaced that last leg from the USB to ethernet adapter to my AP. The impact may be higher if I can go direct to the ethernet port on my server (bit of a hassle on my current server as it is disabled in bios/OS).

Looking to add more ... (a lot more of these!)

As I shared at AXPONA, the Discovery Veridion series can be deeply satisfying compared to other cables on the market — just as long as you don’t also try the Gamma, Spectra, or Ultimatum Veridion .

Priority should be given to upstream components, as improvements flow downstream. In our findings, the router delivers the highest impact—surpassing even the music server.

And from your email I received yesterday:

Because improvements flow downstream, upstream components deserve top priority. Our research reveals that the router makes the biggest impact—outperforming even the music server.

That is quite a statement, and I’m curious if this is a Veridion-specific finding. To be clear, are you recommending changing the router AC cable before the server AC cable?

I currently have two Discovery Veridion Ethernet cables on trial in my setup, and I’m wondering: is it most beneficial to equip a router with: Veridion AC cable + Veridion DC cable + Veridion coax (if applicable) + Veridion Cat6 cable (if no fiber used), ideally at least two coupled together with the Veridion coupler.

Before going ’end-to-end connection with your cables across both analogue and digital chains’, would you consider this the optimal upstream configuration to start with to maximize downstream benefits, or are there alternative or more rewarding strategies further downstream?

I am aware all setups are different, but as a general rule, do you recommend prioritizing all possible router cables before changing any other cable downstream, with any cable of the Veridion series?

 

[QSA-LANEDRI]

From the very start of our R&D, we ran into two findings that stood out. They sound like bold claims, but after years of testing, we now treat them as facts. And with Veridion, these ideas are pushed even further:

Fact 1 – The law of diminishing returns doesn’t apply.
Every cable or component in the chain — power cable, signal cable , from router to speakers, headphones, TV, projector — has the potential to bring a real wow moment. What amazed us most is that it’s not just the same effects amplified. Each type of cable or component adds its own unique impact, raising the overall music and cinematic experience to new highs.

Fact 2 – No trade-offs between characteristics.
With Veridion, the improvements come across the whole experience. It’s not about boosting one aspect while sacrificing another (a problem many manufacturers face). Instead, Veridion lifts everything together, with no compromises.

Many of our clients have confirmed these findings, and with the Discovery Veridion they’ve become more accessible for an even wider audience to put to the test. Our confidence in these results is exactly why we back them with a full refund guarantee.

Adding the power strip enhances the effect even further. I am very glad I bought the power strips.

The Discovery Veridion power strip is one of our top recommendations because it lays the foundation for all other improvements. Whether you add a Discovery Veridion AC or DC power cable, each digital or analogue component will reveal its own unique gains — but those improvements truly shine when they’re built on the solid base of the Discovery Veridion power strip.

In our lab, power conditioners were always a cornerstone of our setups. We worked with high-end models priced around $30,000, which delivered an impressive drop in noise floor. The revelation came when we started using power strips with our technology — we realized just how much of the frequency spectrum those high-end conditioners were holding back.

With the Discovery Veridion power strip, we achieved at least the same level of background blackness while preserving the full spectrum intact.

The result is a true day-and-night difference — one that words can’t fully capture. It’s something that has to be experienced first-hand to truly appreciate.

@Zaphod Beeblebrox experience mirrors what I meant about there being no trade-offs between characteristics.

That is quite a statement, and I’m curious if this is a Veridion-specific finding. To be clear, are you recommending changing the router AC cable before the server AC cable?

I currently have two Discovery Veridion Ethernet cables on trial in my setup, and I’m wondering: is it most beneficial to equip a router with: Veridion AC cable + Veridion DC cable + Veridion coax (if applicable) + Veridion Cat6 cable (if no fiber used), ideally at least two coupled together with the Veridion coupler.

Yes, we recommend to start with the using the Discovery Veridion AC and DC power cables on the Router/Switch along with the Discovery Veridion coax cable when applicable and also the Ethernet cables all along the router, switch, server chain.

Before going ’end-to-end connection with your cables across both analogue and digital chains’, would you consider this the optimal upstream configuration to start with to maximize downstream benefits, or are there alternative or more rewarding strategies further downstream?

Based on our finding, we find the priority on the impacts with our technology from upstream to downstream components with this priority on descending level:
1. Router and then switches
2. Server
3. Preamp
4. DAC
5. Amplifier

It’s important to note that every cable type and every component has its own unique impact that can’t be replaced — and together, they all add up to the whole experience.

In video setups, the priority is similar: start with the router/switch and then the media streamer.

For both audio and video, we’ve found that the impact through the speakers/headphones and the TV/projector is a cornerstone, as these are the components that bring all the improvements together in the final presentation.

I am aware all setups are different, but as a general rule, do you recommend prioritizing all possible router cables before changing any other cable downstream, with any cable of the Veridion series?

Yes.

Anas,

When starting with no.1 - routers and switch, which is the order of importance.

Will the impact of the DC pigtail give how short it is, be the last in line?

As I understood that it is the amount of conductor plays the biggest part in the treatment.

Is there any difference in the veridion treatment that does not require the total mass of the conducting medium i.e the more the stronger you hear the effects, to be key in this treatment?

If the same gauge wire as the DC pigtail, say 1 meter, you will need 4 x DC cables stringed together to get approximate effect of the same 1 meter conductors, taking to connectors out of this equation?

 

[QSA-LANEDRI]

When starting with no.1 - routers and switch, which is the order of importance.

Routers are the first priority, followed by switches.

In my priority list, I was referring to the magnitude of impacts rather than the nature of them. When using Discovery Veridion cables, every component in the audio and video chain contributes its own unique impact that cannot be substituted—and the same holds true for cable types (for example, the Discovery AC power cable creates a different impact than the Discovery DC power cable). For the sake of prioritization, however, I’ve highlighted the elements we found to deliver the greatest magnitude of impact.

As I understood that it is the amount of conductor plays the biggest part in the treatment.

Is there any difference in the veridion treatment that does not require the total mass of the conducting medium i.e the more the stronger you hear the effects, to be key in this treatment?

With our Veridion technology, we’ve eliminated factors that many brands still emphasize—such as conductor purity (while others chase the highest purity materials), cable geometry, and even design variations. These elements simply don’t matter in our approach. However, one factor does make a very real and significant difference: the amount of conductors, which translates into cable gauge, along with the mass of the connectors. The greater these are, the stronger the impact. That’s why our Gamma, Spectra, and Ultimatum series are built with massive gauges—up to 1/0 for the Ultimatum power cable and 4/0 for the fully customized Ultimatum speaker cables. Owners of these cables recognize the magnitude of their impact resulting from the massive gauge.

Will the impact of the DC pigtail give how short it is, be the last in line?

If the same gauge wire as the DC pigtail, say 1 meter, you will need 4 x DC cables stringed together to get approximate effect of the same 1 meter conductors, taking to connectors out of this equation?

When it comes to the Discovery DC cable, there’s another important factor that affects performance: susceptibility to noise. A DC cable can act like an antenna, picking up RFI and EMI from Wi-Fi routers, cell phones, and other household electronics. This noise can leak into the sensitive analogue stages of your amplifier or DAC, degrading sound quality with a veiled, harsh, or grainy character. That’s why we designed the Discovery Veridion DC cable to be short—reducing its exposure and making it a smaller ‘target’ for interference. For this reason, we don’t recommend chaining multiple DC cables in series unless absolutely necessary due to placement constraints. This is the opposite of our recommendation for the Discovery Veridion Ethernet cables, where in fact the longer the cable, the better. We’ve tested lengths up to 30 m of the Ethernet cable, and the improvements only kept getting stronger.

To address length limitations on the DC cable without sacrificing performance, our Gamma, Spectra, and Ultimatum DC cables are designed with thicker gauge conductors and connectors with greater mass of metal. The Ultimatum DC cable uses two of the 4/0awg wires.

The Discovery Veridion DC cable will surprise you with its impact—we’ve found it delivers an even greater magnitude of improvement than the AC cable. The nature of the impact is different. The AC cable strengthens the muscles of the music notes from the outside, while the DC cable builds their strength from within. Using both delivers complementary impacts. When using a DC power supply, we recommend pairing it with the Discovery Veridion AC power cable on the supply itself, and the Discovery Veridion DC extension cable to connect the supply to your component.

Thanks a lot for the detailed clarifications, really helpful. I just want to make sure I understand the Veridion system correctly and get some practical guidance for optimizing AC, DC, and Ethernet cables in my setup.

I see now why you put the router first, then switches, and also how AC and DC play different but complementary roles. I’m especially curious to try the AC + DC combo on my router; sounds like a strong follow up next to both Discovery Ethernet cables I already have in place upstream.

Going back over the thread and your recent replies, I think I also get why you advise against changing connectors ourselves. The conductor, dielectric, and connector are treated as one unit, so swapping a connector on an AC cable (say to a Schuko in Europe) would weaken the effect. And yes, it also explains why the heavier US gauge makes the AC cables better than the EU versions. So if someone in Europe wants max SQ, the way forward would be to run the Discovery powerstrip with EU Shuko plug and use with up to six US AC cables.

Since longer DC runs can act like antennas, I imagine the best solution is to keep it as short as possible. So ideally just use the Discovery DC pigtail cable with only an adapter if the length allows, or place your pigtail close to the receiving device with the shortest shielded DC run you have in between. I use male-to-male DC cables, since the Discovery pigtail combined with another DC cable can be used both ways, I imagine the orientation is likely important. And also the choice of optimal combo cable?

Ethernet’s a bit different though, you confirm the Veridion effect actually gets stronger when chaining two or more cables with the coupler. Since the coupler is treated too, is it also directional? From what I understand there’s no dielectric involved, correct?

I’m guessing this effect comes down to the different “domains” they operate in:
* DC longer than necessary just turns into an antenna for EMI/RFI, so short is best.
* Ethernet, longer is better. Being Cat6 UTP with no shielding, doesn’t suffer the same way from EMI/RFI so every treated section (connector + dielectric + connector + coupler) will be further cleaning up noise or phase smear riding with the bits before they get into the DAC.

A quick reminder: all our cables are directional. In the Discovery series, the QSA Lanedri logo and serial number are always placed near the connector that should be connected to the destination component. For adapters, follow the arrow pointing toward the destination component. Ensuring the correct direction is crucial for achieving optimal performance.

Last one: does the same directionality apply to the Veridion coax?

So if someone in Europe wants max SQ, the way forward would be to run the Discovery powerstrip with EU Shuko plug and use with up to six US AC cables.

We offer a single version of the Discovery Veridion AC power cable, built with the heavier U.S. gauge. This ensures that all clients worldwide experience the same performance and impact. For our European clients, we also provide a Schuko adaptor compatible with the U.S. connector.

Since longer DC runs can act like antennas, I imagine the best solution is to keep it as short as possible. So ideally just use the Discovery DC pigtail cable with only an adapter if the length allows, or place your pigtail close to the receiving device with the shortest shielded DC run you have in between.

And also the choice of optimal combo cable?

Yes, all our cables are directional. In certain cases, such as with the Discovery Veridion DC power extension cable, the risk of incorrect orientation does not exist since it can only be connected in one direction.

Ethernet’s a bit different though, you confirm the Veridion effect actually gets stronger when chaining two or more cables with the coupler. Since the coupler is treated too, is it also directional? From what I understand there’s no dielectric involved, correct?

The Ethernet coupler is also directional, marked with an arrow pointing toward the destination component. With the Discovery Veridion Ethernet cable, performance improves with length: the longer the cable, the stronger the impact—without any compromise to the dark background. In fact, the effect is amplified with longer cables.

I’m guessing this effect comes down to the different “domains” they operate in:
* DC longer than necessary just turns into an antenna for EMI/RFI, so short is best.
* Ethernet, longer is better. Being Cat6 UTP with no shielding, doesn’t suffer the same way from EMI/RFI so every treated section (connector + dielectric + connector + coupler) will be further cleaning up noise or phase smear riding with the bits before they get into the DAC.

Correct.

Last one: does the same directionality apply to the Veridion coax?

Yes. Just like all Discovery Veridion cables, the Discovery Veridion Coax cable has a label with the logo and serial number placed near the connector that should be plugged into the destination component.

In our findings, the router delivers the highest impact—surpassing even the music server.

https://www.whatsbestforum.com/goto/post?id=871611

This suggests Wi-Fi “radiation” does not affect SQ at all. It’s harmful impact is therefor limited to what it dumps onto your mains supply. With the caveat there’s Wi-Fi present already from your home Wi-Fi, neighbours, etc.

That got me thinking, what if we just go ahead to get rid of those Wi-Fi antennas altogether by connecting the router and the music server (already came with detachable antennas that is) with heavy-gauge coaxial cables?

At least some of them didn't look too impressive in the first place:

While I've been reading this thread about clock cables that are terminated with 50Ω BNC connectors on both ends, LMR-400 turned out to be compatible with RP-SMA connectors as well:

https://www.head-fi.org/goto/post?id=18282529

I much prefer the LMR-400 over my oyaide cables for clock use. The Oyaide is a denser meatier sound- but to my ears- fuzzier. The LMR-400 has enormous SOLIDITY of sound- completely free of any fuzz or veil. I prefer this more dynamic- harder sound.

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/do..._cisco_access_points_with_smart_antennas.html

There are tons of choices available for LMR-400, here's just an example that goes up to 20M:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007575438322.html

Some of them would even reach 30M or above:

[Di-fi]

Yes, all our cables are directional. In certain cases, such as with the Discovery Veridion DC power extension cable, the risk of incorrect orientation does not exist since it can only be connected in one direction.

Thanks for clarifying. I realize now the confusion was on my side — my JS-2 power supply has (two) female DC outputs, so when I use male-to-male DC cables it’s actually possible for me to orient them in both directions. That’s why I was wondering whether orientation would make a difference in this case. It does, pigtail plugged into the destination component is the way to go.

What I also meant to ask is about the cable that connects to the Discovery DC pigtail. Although it seems no cable is best, in your experience, is it best to keep this run as short as possible with strong shielding, and would a heavy-gauge DC cable be more beneficial? Is there an “optimal combo” cable type you recommend pairing with the pigtail?

 

[Di-fi]

For our European clients, we also provide a Schuko adaptor compatible with the U.S. connector.

Thanks — is the Schuko adaptor itself treated with Veridion? If yes, then it might even sound better than using the AC cable without the adaptor, right?

I understand now when I choose Plug type* EU Schuko to put in my cart, it comes with the adapter ;-)
