On the topic of pseudo-science and high end audio

Wow! I used Google Search to learn what year Mr. Bybee received the Nobel prize for physics. His discovery of the means to reverse the polarity of electrons and protons would enable the creation of all sorts of new materials and -- who knows -- maybe even "anti-matter" itself! For the life of me, I cannot fathom why he has limited the application of his extraordinary technology breakthrough solely to aftermarket audio components.

The other fields must not be nearly as profitable.
 
Try Teo Audio...


The physics of Teo Audio cables is different than all other audio cables. Fundamentally so. This is critical, as aspects go. It is not marketing hype to say that the transmission of signal in the Teo Audio cables is fundamentally different and more correct than all others.
Only Teo Audio cables present the signal with a transmission environment that is proper for the signal.
Signal is an ionic plasma, an electron charge, in balance offset, which is what propels it, or drives it.
A plasma is different than a solidus elemental lattice structure, which is what ‘wire’ is. A solidus frozen elemental lattice, this ‘wire’, is only capable of handling one aspect of signal transmission, the transverse wave function, as it is called in electrical physics terms.
The liquid metal in the Teo Audio cables, is liquid at the atomic level. Down to the molecular level. (No gross particle infused design of fluid cable can do its correctly) This means that there is a freedom in flow and organization of the fluid, in the most correct way. That each electron orbital transfer point, from one atomic structure to another, is free to enter into a state of complex rotation, as the electron moves into bridging the gap and transferring from one atomic structure to the next.
This condition of flow, or electron transfer in the fluid metal alloy, allows for the second aspect of gas, plasma, and fluid systems to arise, which is the ‘longitudinal wave’ of electromagnetic theory and analysis.
Due to this the fluid and the signal, for the first time, can act and flow, in some critical ways, as one.
Some of the fundamental and inescapable distortion components that are in wire based signal transfer systems drop away and cease to exist, when the signal is transported in a fluid medium. This is why the Teo Audio cables have such huge bandwidth, into the gigahertz range.
It is the solid lattice structure of wire, as a system of electrical transfer that gives rise to the limits of dynamic correctness, and a multitude of complex distortions when the wire is asked to deal with complex harmonic signals that go from near DC, through the skin effect region, and into the higher frequencies.
Eliminating these very source of these fundamental distortions, is what gives the Teo Audio cables their incredible dynamic clarity and fundamental rich harmonic body of sound. Teo Audio cables are, in all ways, the only known fundamentally correct method of achieving signal transfer in audio systems.

Show this to the nearest physicist or electrical engineer. Just make sure he isn't in the middle of drinking hot coffee.

I'm a Bayesian. The preponderance of the evidence suggests that our perceptions of audio equipment involve much more than strictly audible phenomena, so I proceed from that starting point. That doesn't mean "watts are watts", "wire is wire", "only amplitude and frequency count" conclusively, but it means you should probably start there as the null hypothesis and attempt to disprove it, rather than start from the point of view that heavily rationalized, or (pseudo-)science supported *subjective impressions* are dispositive.

Just because it isn't strictly audible doesn't mean it is not meaningful. In the end, you will be listening in your room. In my view, the search process should be simulating that and trying hard to imagine how happy, for how long, "future you" will be with the purchase you are evaluating. Be mindful that we are mostly poor judges of "future you", but take home what you think will make you happy.
 
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) was established under President Woodrow Wilson in 1914 to protect consumers against trusts via the elimination and prevention of anticompetitive business practices, such as coercive monopolies. Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45 grants the FTC power to investigate and prevent deceptive trade practices. According to their own commission, federal law states that an “ad must be truthful, not misleading, and, when appropriate, backed by scientific evidence”.

On May 3, 1974, the FTC instituted its Amplifier Rule to combat the unrealistic power claims made by many hi-fi amplifier manufacturers. "Unrealistic" meaning manufacturers specifying power solely as peak, dynamic of summed two or more channels would not be tolerated. This rule prescribes continuous power measurements performed with sine wave signals for advertising and specifications of amplifiers sold in the US. This rule was later amended in 1998 to cover self-powered speakers such as those commonly used with personal computers or portable devices.


Since then I am not sure what happened but perhaps someday when they are less busy... who knows? :)
