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?
Guys- I bought a pair of TWL 7+ per HiFial review of the VERITAS, big mistake. Bass bloated & midrange was thick/muddy. I called Merrill & he set me straight. He tried all the TWL pc's & the 10+ was the best. The 7+ has much more resistance & better for class A/AB amps.
Sorry HiFial, I was mistaken. It must have been another review I read. I meant no disrespect.
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.
Yes Guido, It was Audiozen that was implying that Hypex was owned by Philips, not you or HiFial. Thank you.
