Biggest Baddest Audio Cables


Whether they actually sound better or not, I don't really care but I have a fetish for beautifully made, anaconda sized audio cables, especially with unusually well made connectors. Any ideas here especially where 2nd hand is a deep discount would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

After listening to some smaller lengths between my source components and preamp, I just persuaded my dealer to persuade TEO liquid cable to make a special 6.5 meter run of RCA interconnects. They weren't sure they could do it initially, but after a few weeks and some listening tests they produced them. I put them between an ARC Ref 5 and a pair of CAT JL-3 monoblocks, and the openess of the sound is just incredible.

I can't of course predict how these would sound in any other system, but if you ever get a chance to demo a pair in your system, I highly recommend you try them out.
Klinerm, I'm not much of a forum/chat room guy (I'm too wordy!), but your dealer contacted me and let me know about your post. Let's just say that we're thrilled that you're thrilled! Teo Audio's patent attorney says we have in Teo Audio Liquid Cable the first truly new thing to happen in conductor technology in 150 years. These things are very different than conventional solid metal cables. They seem to break all known laws of physics, but in fact only use ones never applied to audio -- liquid metal doesn't follow the same rules as solid metal. It's quite complex, yet just that simple. I'm just glad we have the patents on it! Thanks Klinerm, for your kindness and willingness to try something very new and different, and for your courage to speak out publicly about how wonderful Teo Audio Liquid Cables are! We appreciate it! Oh, yeah, I'm the worldwide point of contact for the product...I'm a bit partial :>)
Yes, Brian, truthfully, the baseline physics are completely different. The issue is that signal itself is a fluid or plasma effect. running that signal through solidified and crystallized molecular structures like 'solids' is wholly contrary to how the signal itself wants to flow or express it's various and dynamic field conditions.

Running it through a fluid metal, a true fluid, which is free and separate at the molecular level and with high electron mobility at the same time it is charge neutral as relatively possible, means that the signal can express itself more correctly or naturally ...with less noise and less distortion.

More than one person has said that this particular cable added into audio systems makes the single biggest positive change in audio they have ever had or heard in their entire audio careers. This comment came from two different audio equipment distributors who have each been in the audio business for over 30 years.

So yes, there is considerable hype out there in the world of audio, but his is entirely differnent physics at play in this specific case.

One thing for an engineer to try to understand is that all of our basics in electrical measurements are based on the analysis of solids - via solids. Those rules only vaguely apply here and the analysis is so complex that physics cannot yet model what is going on. We (ie, science and maximum possible computer power) only recently managed to figure out how to successfully model a 'single hydrogen atom' structure. So, in essence, the physics of what is at play here cannot yet be modeled. However, we can use good strong intuition, prior experience, and a good mental model of what atomic structure actually is. And atomic structure is not what they taught you in high school.

It is a completely different and dynamic knarly beast, where Einstein, Heisenberg, and quantum function and effect meet in the street and duel it out.

This is all theory, speculation and this is the deep end of the pool in this particular case.

It isn't really an audio cable at all, it merely resembles one - and is a totally different beast.

This cable design presents a true 'before and after' moment in audio times.

For the first time ever, the transfer of the signal between gear is being handled in the exact way that the actual physics of actual signal demands it be handled.

We have a fluid plasma transfer system handling a fluid plasma signal.
Klinerm, thank you for the unsolicited kind words. I know you are careful about changes in your system, yet your leap of faith based on the shorter interconnects' performance has been rewarded, also confirmed by your friends. Many happy hours of listening.
