Liquid Ceramics cables Has anyone heard these?

Audiofeil, sorry....I was using the 'collective' we, and should have been more specific. As far as your point about "some cables", I felt more explanation was in order as to *why* those cables should not be Cooked, but there is also a solution with custom step-down adaptors. That there is more to this subject than simply saying "don't do that" was my point.

Its only cable cooking, can we all get along?

Stan, come on now :) I don't have 80k speakers, but by all accounts my Merlins are among the most 'revealing' of all speakers. Same with my amps, Bernings are noted for clarity and transparency, not coloring the sound in any way, or at least coloration at the bare minimum, the Audio Aero is by all accounts one of the top two or 3 one-box CDP's out there, and my preamp (Tron) is no slouch either. Maybe what would be a better statement than someone's system isn't 'good enough' to reveal the difference is that some systems are better matches for the Cerious than others.
I have tried, as I posted in the other thread about Cerious, Kubala-Sosna Emotions, Harmonic tech cyberlights, Stereovox Reference, HMS Gran Finale, and beta Indras, and the differences in sound are clearly and immediately evident. Does the Cerious better all of these cables in every way in my system? NO. Each of these cables has some strong points. Some have weightier bass, some have more extended highs, some have tighter bass, some throw a bigger soundstage, some pass more low level detail. To me, right now, the Cerious is the best 'compromise', (I don't like to use that word compromise, because it sounds like a back-handed way to say the cables really aren't all that) because it comes close enough to the other cables in all of these areas without screwing up something else. If you can find me a cable with the bass weight of the Kubala's, along with the bass clarity and definition of the Stereovox, the low-level detail retrieval of the Cyberlights, etc. etc. etc. I'll buy it, I'm not married to Cerious or any other particular brand.

Alan, we're cool. Keep on cookin'!!

Stanhifi's post of 9/28: "Perhaps our systems are more sophisticated and reveal the inherent weaknesses of the Cerious cables. Just a thought."

Stan, this has gotten silly. You've been asked repeatedly to post your system, but you don't even respond about why you won't. Oneprof, Tbg and I have "revealed" : ) our systems, as have many others.
