After reading Teo Audio initial post on Audio Circle regarding their new technology, I decided to follow their thread to learn more about their liquid metal cables and to see how this technology would be accepted by the audiophile community. At that point, only one person from AC had placed an order and I followed because of Teo Audio generous 30-day money back guarantee and I found the new technology quite interesting; it’s a win-win situation.
I’ve had the Teo GC in my system for two weeks and their recommendation is 70-90 hours of continuous playing with no burn-in aids or devices other than line level signals, but I noticed that their plugs appears to be Keith Louis Eichmann which suggests a minimum of 175 hours for their connectors to form and burn-in and currently I have over 280+ hours.
Anyway, the moment I plugged the GC into my system, I couldn’t believe what I was hearing; it was the first time in my Audiophile career (30 years) that I was speechless even though I’m quite laid back and reserved! The change was so radical and like nothing I’ve ever heard before, it was like a wave of sound coming toward you in perfect time-alignment, which felt like I was part of a live performance. Sure, they have the attributes of the best cables you have tried in your system but the GC takes it even further in the realms of clarity, quietness, texture, body, richness, dimension, natural decay, ambiance retrieval, image density and at the same time draws you into the venue of the acoustical space…
I primarily listen to Classical Guitar, Cello, Violin and occasionally piano and these instruments are front and center with the GC in place. Images within the soundstage are precisely laid out with palpable images that are spooky realistic and I now understand the cliché’ “as if no cables are being used”. The GC has such a beautiful presence in the midrange with realistic, vibrant and bloomy overtones that makes traditional “wires” sound flat, uninviting and 2 dimensional.
These cables excel in painting an accurate picture of the landscape happening between and outside the edges of your speakers with ease and at the same time sound so organic and realistic... I’ve also noticed that the GC cables reach deeper in the mid-bass and bass region, my acoustical instruments are more weighty, resonant and drums are tighter with more impact, definition and slam. The GC are so cohesive that you don’t notice the highs or lows, but it’s all there in a manner that’s hard to explain…
As an entry level offering, Teo Audio GC are actually a “Game Changer” and sounds nothing like the 20+ pairs of “Wires” I’ve owned and some in the $2K range. If the GC sound this good, I wonder how much better is their Splash version…
