After over 30 years of testing cables we do not spend much time with entry level models anymore. We have found in our testing that if you are after real emotion it will not happen at entry level so most of our testing is done on the top 2 models of a manufacturers cable. Just for the record I am not saying that some entry level cables are not really good but for us to achieve an emotional experience in our systems it always took upper end models of cables.
Teo XLR
I notice liquid cables are being talked about a bit at the moment so thought I'd share my experience.
I come from a somewhat cable sceptic background. After playing with modest cables I felt there were differences but it was all pretty subtle. The best I came across were Anti-cables which with everything I've seen seemed to offer slightly greater clarity. They've stayed in my system for the past 3 years as it's evolved.
I run an Emm Labs, Muse amp (very underrated)and Kharma speakers with just an XLR between the electronics. I was offered the opportunity to try a Teo XLR in an unfamiliar system a little while ago and was surprised at the difference it made so at the earliest opportunity I tried them in mine.
I've had them for over a week now and have been surprised at just how big a difference they've made. In a system that I've been very happy with the greater decay and body to notes is a revelation. They've added a more natural perspective that I didn't know I was missing. Very impressive.
