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.

I'm looking forward on implementing the Splash Rs into my system; just couldn't believe the transformation the GC made and understand the Splash is going to take it even further...

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 whether or not this level of 'perfection' would really be a sensible investment with my modest system.  MBP-->FLAC's-->Audirvana3-->curiousUSB-->Recovery-->curiousUSB--> HegelHD25 DAC-->MorrowMA4-->BellesAria Integrated -->MorrowSP4-->KudosSuper20 Speakers

I already have (to my ears) quite nice sound quality, especially considering I haven't spent the kind of money others have on their magnificent systems.  Would the GC's make a significant difference or would the dollars be better spent elsewhere?

Thanks for your thoughts

Only you can say for sure. Like you said, what do you have to lose?

janehamble-

Your Morrow ma4's are good cables and aren't far behind in price to the GC's so yes I think it's worth a shot to try them. A friend of mine had ma5's with Eichmann connectors and tried the GC's and within just a few minutes he was smitten. You have a good system there so why not give the GC's a chance.

I thought I was done when I changed everything over to a Cerious Technologies Graphene Extreme cables and then I went and did it, I tried the Teo. Crap! It's better than anything else I've tried and I've owned the very expensive Morrow Elite Grand Reference. The Teo's better. Its so completely organic and natural sounding. I won't give up my CT Graphene speaker cables but for interconnects it's Teo Game Changers for me now.
