"Wow, x sounds so real!"
Freaky, isn't it @tommylion ? When I first auditioned Teo cables, I ran back to the rack to see what components were swapped in while I wasn't looking! It just works...
I suspect it might take getting in a pair of Splashes to do so.
Teehee... you truly owe it to yourself... run with the GCs between the DAC and the Pre and a pair of Splash ICs from the Pre to the Amp. Just glorious. I'm currently running with Splash between the Meitner MA-1 DAC and the Audio Valve Eklipse pre and a pair of Standards between the pre and a pair of BHK 300 mono blocks. Lovin' it...
