QSA Landeri Veridion Discovery

[Willgolf]

I suspect so.

I saw and heard positive benefits from QSA Jitter Plugs. These affix onto the end of existing power cords. So when a friend mentioned using an adapter with the Veridion, it seemed plausible that it could provide benefit when being attached in the same way a Jitter Plug would be.

What the QSA-L DC extension cable showed me as well is that the QSA treatment can still be beneficial when it’s being fed from another cable. These extension cables punched way above their weight.

While having end to end treatment is best, a good amount of the QSA goodness will still come through even if we are forced to piece things together with adapters.

Did you buy a special adapter?

I bought the adapter and plugged it into my TV. Thank You. I don't know why I didn't think of that in the first place. I have my 7 Veridion cords connected to my JVC projector, two TVs, and the rest are stored in my media closet, which includes a power conditioner, router, external power supply, and main switch, all supporting my theater room.

All of my 2-channel power cords are the QSA UI line.

For those who have had the Veridian Discovery Power cables for awhile, can you describe the burn in experience? How many hours before it settles to near optimal performance?

Very rough swings for 2 weeks then longer ,less extreme changes. By week 4 you THINK you are there but gradual improvement through week 5. This is with current flowing through 24/7 so about 900 hours.

Just received a discovery LAN cable.
Are these directional?
How would you identify that If so?

Thanks for the link.
Wish they would have arrows on the label.
They do on the power cables. However, it is virtually unnecessary on them.

Did you have to chance to compare the Discovery AC to a great bulk powercable like Furutech dps-4.1?

I'll be doing that exact comparison once my next set of ac cables arrives

My perspective is that this (understandably ) represents a mistake in how to think of these AC wires. I do not think of them as "new cables" in my system. They are, I think, better viewed as a TWEAK that is so powerfully effective it overides the difference between any 2 AC cables (that I have experienced which is limited to $3,000 per AC wire). If we were experiencing these as simply good wires certainly they might be better than some but not as good sounding as others. If that was the case I find it hard to understand my experience: I started with one going from the wall to my distributor with wonderfull results INCLUDING BETTER TRANSIENTS AND SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASED HEADROOM AT LOUD VOLUMES- so I was not concerned that it was about half the girth of the cord it replaced. I bought and added (in line from the wall to the distributor) one and then two Veridion power strips ( with a captive 1.5 meter AC cord) in series and the SQ got better and better. I heard a greater improvement adding the second strip than from the origonal cord or the first strip. If these were just "good powercords" more should not be a (huge) improvement. In my system they sound slightly "tilted up" in tonal balance for a couple of weeks and later become fuller and richer. In my experience break-in is not complete for six weeks.

I was using a Furutech DPS 4.1 before introducing the Discovery cables, and prefer the Veridion. I'm fully Version PC in my system currently. For a while I kept the Furutech in because it has that cloud of warmth and comfort. However, once I tuned things around to optimize the Veridion, it became apparent that the Veridion had more density (after burn in, mind you) and revealed more of the musical information.
