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.

Excellent point, jayctoy. My system:

Amp: Line Magnetic 508ia integrated with upgraded tubes

Music Server: Aurender X100L

DAC: Lampizator Atlantic tube rectified

Phono preamp: Allnic H1201

Analog: Well Tempered Amadeus/Audio Technica ART-9 cartridge

Speakers: Daedalus Ulysses

Speaker Cables: Cerious Graphene Extremes

Power Cord: Cerious Graphene Extreme

Interconnects: Cerious Graphene Extreme

USB Cable: TotalDAC

Like most audiophiles, I have been through a lot of cables, including (most recently) High Fidelity CT-1s, Fusion Audio Romance 2s, Jade Audio Hybrid, and too many others to list. I really like the Cerious cables, especially the power cords and speaker cables. The interconnects are also very good, but perhaps not quite as extraordinary as the speaker cables and power cords, at least in my system. I could certainly live happily with them, but I admit that bugredmachine's review piqued my curiosity.

I don't know exactly when I will receive them as I have yet to confirm a shipping date with Teo Audio, but I will follow up here when I do get them. If I like them as much as bugredmachine does, I will get a second pair between amp and phono stage.

We'll see in due course...
