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.

Hello, Apologies for not answering sooner on both questions.

The GC cable is unique in the line up. It is RCA single ended only.

A balanced cable would be a wholly different configuration and design, and would be priced accordingly. A digital cable (which we make in RCA terminated format) would also be a different design compared to either a balanced cable or the GC RCA cable.

The GC sits alone in our range as a very cut price direct sale unit, serving as an introduction to the technology.

Thanks Ken. So just to be clear, you do make a digital cable terminated in RCA but just not in the Game Changer line of pricing?

Hello, yes, that is correct, we make a digital cable in our regular line up. To work it's best, required -in my thinking- some custom shielding/ground materials I had to develop.

I made a interesting little short video that illustrates the evidence of the critical difference of liquid metal vs solid wire.

Now I have to figure out how to post it...(I'll probably start up a YouTube account.)

Bugredmachine I read your post on Cerious Cables thread, compare to Teo which one is better.
