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.

Lak,

You’ve sort of answered part of the question, you don't expect much of a gain on the sub between the 2 of Bob’s cord.

I had a mix of PCs in the system and currently in the process of selling off what isn’t a Matrix. Now that I have a new pair of subs coming I thought about the Blue which is in the sell pile.

Thinking maybe get another blue for the other sub and it might be a solid cheap solution. Could get yet another pair of Matrix and still sell the blue, or just stay with the Rel supplied cord.

Found the manual interesting where Rel didn’t refer to courtesy cord. Maybe they supply a decent cord to start with.

Just call Bob. He’ll tell you. The REL does benefit from  an upgrade power cord

This thread has gone quiet but here's something to revive it: I purchased a 4 foot Matrix DC cable a few months ago. The noise floor is dead quiet. It's a damn good umbilical. 

I emailed Bob to purchase another one but he hasn't replied. He must still be busy from his holiday sale.

No reply from Bob just means he’s busy and will get back eventually. I too need to try an umbilical between my Modwright Oppo and PS9 power supply.
