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.

Well tomorrow will be 9 business days since I ordered. Also, no replies to my email or my messages through the Audiogon system.

@ozzy , that sounds a lot like the same complaints I read on that Cerious Technologies Graphene Extreme cable thread that you started. Folks complaining about Bob Grost lack of speed and responsiveness.

Same complaints on the Core Power Tech thread too.

Maybe, if folks wouldn't start these threads praising the work of small, boutique manufacturers, they wouldn't get swamped and overloaded with work. Just a thought.....

OMG
Would you suggest that maybe we should praise them when business is slow and then when they get swamped we complain so sales drop? :)
Somehow we need to figure out how to balance this to help the cable makers.

Patience is a great attribute.

Anybody want to update their experience with the product?

bumperdoo,

Great line I’ll have to remember that one.

aniwolfe,

You make a good point.

meanmbler,

Unfortunately, patience is not my best virtue. And being ignored is even worse.

More of an incentive for the seller, I believe if your not ready to ship then you shouldn’t accept the money until you are.

Excellent - now perhaps we can get back to the theme of this thread...

Anybody want to update their experience with the product?

I'm continuing to love my Splash an Standard cables @meambler - currently using the Splash Copper between my Meitner MA-1 DAC and Audio Valve Eklipse pre-amp and the standard between the pre and BHK 300 mono blocks. Absolutely loving what I'm hearing. It's all there - soundstage, speed, plosives... everything.

Weak recordings and sub-standard equipment will show their short-comings rather quickly with these cables. There is no hiding...  :)
