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.

HiFial- I just checked the copies of threads/reviews of the VERITAS amps. On one audiogon thread that you(HiFial)/Audiozen/Guidocorona were arguing that Hypex/Ncore is owned by Philips company. On that thread dated around 1/26/13 someone who owns- B&W 802D speakers;PS Audio Perfectwave DAC MKII with Bridge by Ethernet and PW transport etc. That person commented that 'They LOVE Pete's Triode Wire Labs cables, both Ten Plus AND Seven Plus'. That is one comment I went by plus I swore there was a review I read that he preferred the Seven Plus on the VERITAS.

Plus I liked Pete Ten Plus powercord so much that I sold my Shunyata Python Alpha’s & bought 5 Seven Plus powercords(2 for the subs, 2 for the VERITAS amps & 1 for my multichannel amp). I figured that if the Ten Plus is that great on Merrill's amps, the Seven Plus must be incredible being a lower gauge! Like I said, I was wrong on the VERITAS. But on my subs & multichannel amp, this is the best they have ever sounded, bar none. So for the heck of it since I now had 2 extra Seven Plus powercords, I plugged one it into my plasma TV. Unbelievable what it did to my plasma! I already had an after market pc on it, but Pete’s Seven Plus powercord took it to another level. But that is another thread I will start on TWL powercords!

Again HiFial, my bad. I should have never mentioned you before checking. If anything, I totally respect your opinion/findings. So much so I’m purchasing Ultra SS for the VERITAS amps from yours & Merrill’s recommendation.

BTW- From now on I will check with Merrill before I purchase anything for the VERITAS amps.
Theo, my apologies, but I have never asserted that Hypex were owned by Philips... On the contrary, Hypex is a privately owned company founded by Mr. Amerangen.

The original UCD technology was developed by Bruno Putzeys whilst he was working at Philips, hence the original UCD-related patents were/are owned by Philips, and UCD was subsequently licensed to Hypex.

Later, Mr. Putzeys joined Hypex, where he still works.At Hypex, Mr. Putzeys developed Ncore technology and filed Ncore-related patents, which are all assigned to Hypex.

Yes Guido, It was Audiozen that was implying that Hypex was owned by Philips, not you or HiFial. Thank you.
Theo, No problem. However, I can see where someone could misconstrued my comments in the post of 1/26/13. While I feel that the TWL PC are great for the money, I have only tried the Ten+ on the Veritas. The 7+ were on other equipment, in other systems. So my bad in not being more clear. But as I said in that post TWL has a home trial, money back, so... Also in that post I did mention that the Veritas is PC "finicky". So definitely try before you buy. But that would be for just about any great amp.

On the Stillpoints Ultra SS. All I can say is YOU DID THE RIGHT THING! In every system that I tried the SS in with the Veritas amps ALL heard an improvement in sound. This is in a verity of system types.
Just make sure you install them properly otherwise you will not hear what they can do.

Oh, and thanks for the vote of confidence.
Shunyata has recently introduced the Z-tron Alpha power cord... This is a new $1K PC specifically designed for devices that have SMPS or contain digital components, ranging from CDPs, DACs, up to high power class D amps... Has anyone tried the Z-Tron Alpha DIgital PC on Veritas... Or is otherwise planning to do so?
