Based on the MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet, required for handling/use/shipping HAZMAT) posted on the TEO Audio website, the liquid used in their cables seems to consist of a material such as Galinstan® that is a eutectic alloy composed of gallium, indium and stannum (latin for tin). Galinstan is a registered trademark of the German medical company Geratherm Medical AG, although there are other companies who offer similar alloys, which are non-toxic and have a very low melt temperature. The material properties make Galinstan a good substitute for mercury in thermometers, coolants and thermal grease.
The electrical conductivity of Galinstan is reported as 3.46x106 S/m (at 20 °C), which is somewhat less than lead and greater than titanium.
Makes me want to try some thick lead cables to hear how they sound.
