I bought this Niagara 1000 and have now listened for about 2 hours with it and its excellent. I was very sceptical about it before i listened. Its cleaning up the power without harming the dynamics.

The following improvements i hear.
*More clarity
*Less grain and sibilance
*Sounds like i am listening to higher resolution now.
*Better bass impact, better sub bass thats more textured.
*Better seperation of everything.
*More details.
*Better defined left right interplay.
*More powerfull sound, drums hit harder more clinical hits.

I bought audiouquests own cables to us with niagara because on the package it was a sticker that read(works best with audioquests direction controlled cables. These where the Nrg y2 that i bought to replace the apple tv 4k standard black cable that i use for streaming music with optical out from my lg oled tv to my hugo 2 dac. I know not the best source. But most of the audio i listen to is from movie and tv series, watching always with hp.

And i bought a 2m Nrg Z3 (from wall to niagara) and finally 1m Nrg Z3 to replace my hp amp black cable.

These reviews got me i intrested in it. And i most say they are telling the truth. Its the real deal.

Also like they mention in the ear.net review it has burn in time of two weeks and will gradually sound even better acording to the manual.

"It was at this point that I got a message from my friendly Audioquest rep. ‘If you think it sounds good now, let it settle for a week then listen again – you will be even more impressed!’"

Also before i was using a no name powerstrip.

I have one incoming but I am cautiously skeptical about the improvements. I feel my wall power is quite clean already but we shall see.

Cool. I hope you will hear the same amount of improvements i hear.

You might even have more noise then you realise. Acording to Garth powell RFI is everywhere and is picked up by the cables and gear.
You probebly have wifi in your home right?

I am hearing the same improvements listening straight from hugo 2. Mening it gets a cleaner optical signal from my lg oled b6 tv feeded from my apple tv 4k. So much information that was masked. Now i am actually hearing what they are singing and nuances in the music that was missing before

I even see that i have a slightly clearer/sharper picture quality on my oled tv. So for me the purchase has been worth it.

I've been researching lately and very curious about your thoughts... have you noticed any improvement?

I was noticing that i needed/wanted to turn up the volume more now then before i got niagara 1000.

I might found the answer why.Seems like a sign that it atcually removes RF well.

From https://www.wavehighfidelity.com/storm-1/wave-storm-bnc-cable
"Many identify the effects of RF interference as a harsh sound similar to digital glare which ultimately makes the music sound fatiguing. The presence of RF noise can sometimes be mistaken for detail or a widened sound stage but this is merely an artefact of the interference and is not true detail. Many say that the presence of RF is most easily recognised when it is eradicated. In other words listen with your normal cables and then try the WAVE Storm reference cables. Most people say that they hear an immediate difference saying the music sounds darker, more relaxed and with more detail coming through. Owners of the cables also report that the bass is deeper and has more detail. A vague desire to turn the volume down is instead replaced by a desire to turn the volume up which in my experience is always a sure sign that the RF noise has been eliminated from the system. Indeed even with higher volume levels the music somehow does not appear 'loud'. Rock music actually sounds like rock music should and classical music can be allowed to be played at realistic concert levels, all without harshness."
