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.

Hi Ken,
Would really like to try the GC cables in a 1m length but I would like or prefer XLRs. Is that a possibility?

thanks...

Good to see you here as well Chris! It's been quite a long time since we've chatted audio, but here we are again!

I am with you! Adding the Teo GC upstream has resulted in the best sound my system has attained! Coupled with a pair of Cerious Graphene speaker cables, its fantabulous, LOL. Just trying to figure out the best preamp to amp connection. The Cerious Graphene IC there is working very, very well. No complaints!

Regarding the TEO Game Changers could we have  some numbers on how many are using them on Tubed gear? And how many on solid state?  This may be something that solid state users[like myself] might benefit from [I'm thinking in terms of note saturation, fullness of tone, and so on]. I understand from what I've read on the web this has a heavy saturated[but not slow] presentation. Any info is welcome. regards, bluenose, Sigh, more snow...
I use the Teo GC IC in a hybrid system, where my DAC (ExaSound E12) and amp (Red Dragon S500) are SS, and my preamp (Decware CSP2+) is all tube.... right now, it's between the DAC and preamp.

Presently use a passive preamp and solid state amp. I have tube OTL amps being unboxed (slowly) to be auditioned.

I'll let you know how that goes.
