Hi everybody...Bob from Cerious. Yes we do offer two different versions of the Matrix interconnects ; "Standard" which has no damping jacket and look much like Graphene Extreme on the outside, and "Damping Squared" which employs a sophisticated damping jacket. The Standard are cheaper ($999 pair vs $1249 pair RCA) and more flexible, but the Damping Squared sound better. Best guess the Standard are 90% of the DS. As Audiophiles we know that the last 10% is the hardest to achieve and the most costly. So far we have sold the Damping Squared as most are upgrading from GE. If I pushed the Standard, customers would ask me why I sold them this when there is something "Better" out there. I always recommend to go with the DS version simply because it is the ultimate expression of the Matrix line.
Orders: yes we are currently slow. I moved my son from Michigan shortly before Christmas to join the company and help with production. Teaching and training slows down the process but will - in the long run - enable me to focus on things like communication which clearly everyone would appreciate(!). We assumed that with the introduction of Matrix that it would take some wind out of the sails of Graphene Extreme, but nothing could be further from the truth - sales have only increased on the GE. Believe me we are working long hours to get out PERFECT Matrix line cables and will get faster. It is tough to track who has posted discussing delays as posting IDs are different than names and trying to figure out who is who is a brain teaser. Just write me at
rgrost@cerioustechnologies.com or call 623-703-9771 (especially you John!) and I will try to be available to answer the phone. The Matrix is worth the wait and we are going absolutely as fast as we can but never compromising quality. Thank you so much and Happy New Year!
