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.

Based upon my experience with the CTG speaker cables and I assume the Matrix is similar, (if I'm incorrect someone please correct me) moving the speaker cables after they are broken in will cause them to sound different but they should settle in when relocated a lot faster. Not the same as the HFC products which has to go through the process of regaining magnetic conduction.
Just a 'hats off' to Bob for the nice job he's done with the Matrix line. I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet, but i received my pc today. Everything from packaging to build quality to parts looks and feels super. I realize that sound is of 1st priority,and soon that will be revealed, but so far , impresive. Thanks Bob
Thanks Wig,

I think you wrote, in another thread, that  you definitely preferred the Nanotec 308 power cord over the Furutech SO22N or DPS-4 cables. That would make the Black Mamba one heck of a power cable, as you prefer it to the 308. How would you compare the BM V2 to Tunami V2?
tuffy72561,

I have not personally compared the two but a friend said the BM V2 was more transparent but you really can't go wrong with either at this price point.

The Hallmark of these cables are refinement and precision, everything is laid out much better with sharper images and super black backgrounds; music just start and stops so much faster, not to mention that the soundstage is wider and deeper.

Out of curiosity, I'd like to hear from someone that has actually heard the Nanotec 308 power cord vs the Furutech SO22N and DPS-4 cables.
