So what makes Teo Audio’s Liquid Cable special?
"For the last thirty years or so, the larger audio community, listeners and creative types alike, has become polarized around the question of whether or not the cables used to connect recording and playback devices can affect the quality of reproduced audio. The competing factions can be loosely divided into two camps: the subjectivists and the objectivists. For subjectivists, a change in connecting cables in an audio signal chain can introduce a perceptible change in the sound of the system. Objectivists point to measurements and formulae and insist that such perceptions of change have no basis in reality. TEO, while sharing an objectivist desire to correlate experience with data, is in the subjectivist camp. We hear differences in cables, and assume, that since you’re visiting with us, that you do too."
"Now comes the accelerated section. A 2.5-meter speaker pair (close to the ubiquitous 8-footer run) is $14,990. A 4-meter pair goes for $23,990, the price of a
very fine used car and a quite respectable brand new one. "Speaker cables longer than 4m are not available at this time. When they become available, be aware in advance that due to the electromagnetic properties of the alloy, we must
double the amount of conductors to achieve the same sonic characteristics of shorter lengths. This means doubling the price, too, as well as adding similar incremental increases based on additional lengths beyond 5 meters." Cough. No further comments on the coin portion of this equation. It's all Brian's fault in the first place...
Above words are from his own website, not mine. Anyway, the guy who runs this company, Kevin Hotte, is a major joker and clown and scam artist. He's basically scum of the earth and possibly the most miserable little man in Canada. I think only a certain type of person can get into the cable manufacturing biz. The type of person reminds me a lot of Nicholas Cage's character in the movie Matchstick Men.
