NEW Cerious Technologies Upgrade - Graphene Matrix Cables

CT Graphene Matrix Cables:

I have been using the CT GE cables for almost two years.
I recently traded up for a full loom of CT Graphene Matrix cables, including speaker, interconnect and PCs, and I wanted to share my experience. I started by replacing only the ICs to try and hear the differences.

The new Matrix interconnects sounded better than the GE immediately after install. I found the original Graphene Extreme ICs to be good but not on the same level as the outstanding GE speaker cables. As break-in started to clear things up, I can hear more clarity and detail not heard before. The ICs are incredible on their own and at the 30 hour mark, I can hear a clear superiority over the GE ICs. I recently started using the Teo Game Changer ICs and preferred them over GE but the Teo has now fallen to the new Graphene Matrix ICs. My Teo’s were and are great, and it is stunning to experience Cerious Technologies commitment to making great technology better.

On the third day of listening to the GM ICs. I couldn’t wait anymore, Having too much fun. I then installed the speaker cables and power cords once I had a pretty good feel for the sound of the GM ICs.

With the full loom of GM cables running in they are going through some strange changes and definitely need time to settle down before realizing what they can really do and very important Bob says to not move them. Since I have a home office I can let them run in all day. I’m at around 120 hours now and they are still improving. Here’s what I’m hearing:

Extended highs and tighter lows.
More detail and better low level listening
Drums are tighter, more clearly defined. So real is the snap of the snare drum. The bass has more depth, seemingly goes deeper, lower. This aspect stands out the most.

I am not in the industry, I’m not an engineer, I don’t work for Cerious Technologies, but I am a fan of the cables and am enjoying what my system is capable of.

I’m closer to my own pinnacle of sound reproduction than ever before.

No experience yet on the Matrix but the Oyaide Tunami Terzo V2 is a very good sounding cable and will embarrass cables upward of $1.5K+ and we are talking about $200 cables bought directly from an authorized distributor in Japan.

I discovered the beauty of Oyaide SSC 102 about 2 months ago after hearing many rave about their Black Mamba V2 PC and it is fantastic; replaced my full loom of Nanotec # 308 and 1 CTE Red with these and couldn’t be happier. This DIY PC can be made for $130 total with Parts Connexion Rhodium AC Plug Set.

It’s the latest copper techniques that’s driving the performance of this cable, hence the name SSC which is pure copper with a conductivity of 102.

This is an Outstanding product and yields a greater performance ratio than replacing a fuse and of course it is all system dependent.

Where are you getting the diy cable for the Black Mamba v2? All I'm seeing are finished cables on ebay.

Received my Matrix speaker cables today to go with the Matrix interconnects I already have.To say they are,right out of the box, a significant improvement over the previous generation of CT speaker cables would be an understatement. They are amazing. The construction is first class and equal to or better then any I have had. Every aspect of the musical presentation has improved. Details as I get more along...Thanks Bob.
