Teo Game-Changer IC's - get on the bus!

I wrote an extremely long review of 4 cables auditioned in my system recently. I pontificated for way too long and it was more an outlet for me to tell a story that cables do matter and how much each design can make your system sound. The last cable through was the Teo GC IC purchased here and it truly was a game-changer in how it shifts our paradigm about what wire gives us as "truth" and what this slurry of Ga-In-Sn can do better (IMO). Not a technical review but an emotional roller coaster through 4 different topologies:

Ribbons
Graphene
Multi-strand
Liquid

I'm happy to re-broadcast that here but it is very long (6+ MSWord pages long). I'll point to it for now and take your advice.

Bottom line is the GC cable is truly stunning in what it can do and for us mere mortals who cannot spend thousands on cabling, I believe it can elevate anyone's system to new heights.

Does anyone know if this cable would work well between my turntable and phono stage? I'm using the AT Art9 MC cart and am currently using a audioquest RCA phono cable.

I thought I was done when I changed everything over to a Cerious Technologies Graphene Extreme cables and then I went and did it, I tried the Teo. Crap! It's better than anything else I've tried and I've owned the very expensive Morrow Elite Grand Reference. The Teo's better. Its so completely organic and natural sounding. I won't give up my CT Graphene speaker cables but for interconnects it's Teo Game Changers for me now.

meambler,

others on this thread I believe have followed the same path and are perhaps better at describing the differences. I can say they are more natural and organic sounding and the difference was not subtle. I still think the Graohene Extremes cables are a Big Bang for the buck and the speaker cables are the best I've ever heard. That being said I've never heard Teo's SC's and probably can't afford them.

Janehamble, the Teo GC's are better than my very expensive Morrow Grand Elite Reference IC's so rest assured.

I also think Pete is a great guy. I have owned the Triode Wire Labs American SC's and in my system they didn't come close to the sound of the Graphene Extreme SC's. The Teo GC's do win out over the Graphene Extreme IC's and every other interconnect I've tried.

For for all of you potato people out there........ I’m not friends of or Teo people but the GC’s did work great in my system. Different systems, different synergy I suppose. No BS just good sound.
