Teo Game-Changer IC's - get on the bus!
I'm playing FLAC files through Audirvana 3, Hegel HD25 DAC, Belles amp, Kudos Super 20's.  The USB connection is via Curious Cables with a W4S Recovery. I'll report back with conclusions soon.

Sad to say,  I'm running out of hope for my GC's.  I've had them running 24/7 for the past week and it doesn't look like they're going to make it.  Very disappointed so far. Totally lacking the musicality I was so looking forward to.  I'll give it...

Ordered mine on 4/24, so that makes it around 17 days and counting.  Called Ken today... sorry to bug you again Ken :-)....they should be leaving early next week.  So I should see them, maybe, around day 24....All I can say is get well soon Ken.  ... 
Bluesound Node 2 vs. Auralic Aries Mini
@dogmcd what were you using for digital audio before?  FWIW from my experience, if you are discerning enough to bypass the dac in the Aries and use the Nuprime dac - you would probably enjoy the difference a better quality USB cord would make.   
Break In Experiences with Anti-Cables level 2.1 speaker cables?
I had their level 3 cables.  Like you, they followed AudioQuest - in my case Rocket 33's.  They were horribly bright and metallic sounding - mellowed slightly after a few weeks but I knew they were never going to make it, so they went back.  I rep...

@bumperdoo - that would be fantastic.  Thanks!

So I placed an order 5 days ago.  Would be nice to get some kind of acknowledgement or reply to messages.   Guess I'll just sit tight.....should be next week, with luck.

Yep, my MBP with Recovery and decent USB cables sounds pretty good, to my ears.  I suspect the gap between what I've got and servers like Melco is not so dramatic - one day I'll confirm that.  Meanwhile, I've jumped in line for GC's and can't wait...

@bumperdoo  Thanks for your advice.  I think I'm going for it and will keep you all posted.  Hopefully they won't take too long to arrive.  I hear many people claiming miraculous improvements when they move from serving hi-res files from a compute...

Still thinking about the Game Changers and wondering what would be the best upgrade for my system.  Should I replace my MacBook Pro with a Melco server/NAS, or would the better investment be to replace my Morrow MA4's with the GC's.  I acknowledge...

Hello - I haven't posted here before but have been reading the comments about these GC interconnects with great interest.  They almost sound like the proverbial no-brainer, with a money-back guarantee if things don't work out. My issue concerns wh...
