Power Cables you like with Merrill Veritas Amps


Several of us Veritas owners are wondering what other Veritas owners have found to their liking over the included TWL power cables.
Please describe what improvement you got with the cables you like and the cost so we can compare the cost benefit.

Awesome MW! I'd like to try out a pair. Is there a trade-in offer for the TWL powercords to original owners of the VERITAS amps?
FYI. I had an opportunity to try several different Power Cables on my Veritas Monos over several weeks.

1) LessLoss
2) Triode Wire Lab
3) Waveform
4) A DIY

I found the LessLoss and the DIY cables to sound too Spotlight in their overall top to bottom sound. You heard everything but it was all at once. Like everything was being shouted at you. I found it a little overwhelming.
Also the tone of the instruments was a little lacking.

The TWL cable came across a little too warm and lacking in some details, almost soft. Not bad mind you.

The Waveform was a revelation. The tone of the instruments was spot on. There was deep base, the kind you feel. You heard everything but not at all being shouted at you. The imaging was very good without being artificial. It had better sound stage.
The Waveform Cable did all the things you want a cable to do.

In MHO you would have to spend a hell of a lot to better the Waveform Cable, and even then you may not better it. I am not saying there may not be a better power cable for the Veritas. Just that you would most likely have to spend a lot to better it.

I liked it so much I have ordered a pair.

First off, Paul Kaplan, formerly of Kaplan cable & now of Waveform, makes some great sounding cabling. I have no doubt his digital cable is outstanding.

With the Triode Wire Labs MA-10 (basically a "Ten Plus" cable), a fairly reasonable and very good sounding (with a certain price point) cable was included with the Merrill Audio Veritas amplifiers. Could a better designed power cable for the Hypex-based amps be made? ABSOLUTELY!

Since the introduction of the Veritas amps, I've worked on, developed & designed a digital power cable that renders an unmistakable improvement on Class-D amps, digital players and all digital video gear. I'm using a slightly different dielectric, different grounding layout as well as "state of the art" carbon fiber connectors (similar to the ones used on the Furutech FI-50M series (only $588 per pair! (for the connectors)) but better. These non-magnetic carbon fiber connectors were designed & engineered in the USA by my friend Ted Paisley from Wavelength Audio/Video. Everything listed above makes a noticeable difference for the good; more natural & analog sounding!

I plan on bringing some of these cables to AXPONA-Chicago in two weeks and plan on releasing this new digital power cable at the Capital Audio Fest in July...

Just providing my $0.02...

Cheers,
Pete
Pete, that is great to hear. I would love the opportunity to try a pair. Do you have a price on them yet?
Hi Pete,

Great to read you have/are developing a special digital power cord; I'm very interested as well.
