I have tried using audio-gd power cable for the computer and it appears to improve the sound quality with usb as transport, but the most benefit comes from the power conditioner. And I have also tried using the audio-gd power cable to a pretty good quality LCD (Eizo S1921) and it seems to brighten the color a bit, but it doesn't add another color on top of RGB so I don't think the $75 price tag is really worth it unless you have a $1000+ LCD monitor. If you want power cables for your computer and LCD monitor I'm thinking maybe thick $10-40 ones (or the stock ones that come with audio-gd gear) will suffice. Power conditioner has a much more drastic effect on the LCD monitor than power cable, but they complement each other. If you want to improve your LCD quality or computer as transport, I'd recommend a power conditioner before power cable, or just a power conditioner, imo the benefit is more than sufficient for most people and I think you'd be well-pleased with the results of only getting a power conditioner.
In certain ways (not imaging) I actually much prefer power conditioner+ht omega claro halo sound card over an unpimped out compass.
Just my deranged and possibly placebo-induced two cents. Btw, I really wish power didn't affect audio and video quality, but my observations keep telling me that it does despite the protests of my wallet.
