Now, this is not a advertisement, just a posting sharing my experience on some well made great sounding cables at a very reasonable price. Besides, I don't think Cerious Technologies is set up for a big influx of cable orders.
But, if you get the chance to try these cables, please do.
I have been interested in the newer cables coming out that are using Graphene as a conductor. SR cables seemed interesting, but I always hated the way there cables had all those extra wires (with the active shields and such). I then noticed an ad early in I think November or December from Cerious Technologies for Graphene cables. I investigated how the cables were assembled and it seemed like quite a laborious process.
I ordered (with a 30 day money back guarantee) the balanced Graphene interconnects, and boy did they impress me. Such depth, soundstage, realism, frequency smoothness, effortless sound. I was truly impressed! I now have a complete loom of the Cerious Technologies Graphene cables. That is; interconnects, speaker cables, digital cables and power cords.
I ended up selling all of my other cables and to those of you who have read my postings know that cables have always been my curiosity.
So, as I began this post, let me again iterate, I have no alliance to the company, my posting is for those of you looking for an great alternate high quality Graphene made cable without spending a fortune.
I had second thoughts about challenging subdusted over his claims. Without any history of leaving posts I did not want to make matters worse, which I did anyway, plus I realized he was trolling and almost fell for it...
Do you want me to post pictures of the cables sliced? Can do that...easily ))). Plus, one of the PCs got me electrocuted... Same thing happened to another person I know. Can also put out pictures why it happened. Because of the carbon sticking out.
So...first off why would you not contact me when it is apparent I take good care of customers to have me address any problems you may have had? Second, why would we believe that any problem you may have had was a problem with the original product when you have sliced them in half and torn them apart? There was carbon sticking out? I thought you said they were a fraud because they were just a standard wire? There is no carbon but then there is carbon? Yet another strange post apparently published posthumously since you were electrocuted...
subdusted...you need to go somewhere else and cause trouble.if, indeed, you were 'electrocuted' ...by definition you would be dead.try again. as Mr Grost has indicated in his post,you are contradicting your previous statement....the cables are great.....period.!!!
IMO: Bob is a 110% class act, a true designer and a gentleman. His word is his livelihood. I would and will continue to do business with him and several other manufacturers that advertise on Audiogon and demonstrate the same high qualities.
I too had a problem. I squeezed a power cable and once again peanut butter and jelly came out. I couldn't help my self. I had to taste it.... It was delicious. It was worth the electrocution I endured. I will order more of these delicious cables.
It is truly unfortunate that this type of thing is part of your business environment and our hobby, but rest assured that your customers and potential customers give no credence to such nonsense.
I've been an owner of Bob's products since back in the day of his Unity Audio signature speakers and now of his unique and excellent cable designs. He is a man of true integrity and dedication to his work; the industry is better with his involvement.

Since you can do it easily, I'd love to see the pictures of the sliced cable.
Only in the world of high end audio can one be electrocuted and continue posting. Which electrical property, resistance or reactance, is responsible? Almarg can jump in here for a more thorough explanation..............
lancelock, Was the peanut butter in the power cable smooth or chunky? In my experience I've found the smooth to enhance the sound while the chunky seems to add a bit of incoherence. The choice of jelly may affect the sound as well. But as always YMMV.
I have never tried the cables you have mentioned. But, I have compared the Cerious Graphene cables to Purist Dominus, Synergistic Apex, Kimber Select, HF Ultimate and so many more.
So, if any of those cables have been compared to the cables you have mentioned, the Cerious Is better!
I was just trying to give the poster some sort of comparison. I doubt that his question will get much response comparing the Cerious Graphene cables to the WyWires. But, I suppose you never know...
Hi John, You raise a good point but don't you believe that it's "implied" that a response is simply one's own opinion? I just assume that when I offer a comment or impression people realize it only my opinion and by no means represents an etched in stone proclamation. It just seems that people participating on an open forum would be aware of this. Charles
I'm looking forward to getting a "full Monty" of GE cables from Bob. This thread was instrumental in my decision, so thanks to all that have shared their experiences. I'm not replacing cables of the caliber of many here but they certainly aren't chopped liver. I have a mishmash of Decware Silver Reference, Groneberg Quattro Reference, Coincident Statement, PS Audio A10, Mapleshade Double Helix Plus and Duelund DTC16. I'm looking forward to hopefully getting the results of most here.
BTW, anyone have any experience with the Cerious speakers?
Hi John, Again you make good points. Assumptions can certainly be wrong, no doubt. I just think "newbies" unfamiliar with audio products are adults who would bring some degree of rational though/common sense along with their curiosity to these forums. I'd find it somewhat hard to believe that a newbie would take the numerous impressions offered here as the holy gospel. I could certainly be wrong.
I could never declare Coincident products the best (or any product for that matter) for the very reasons you stated above. I can only go as far as saying they've served me superbly 😊. Charles
I have a Decware Torii mk IV amp, PS Audio Perfectwave transport and DAC with Tekton Double Impact speakers. I do enjoy my system quite a bit, but I'm hoping to get the Coincident Frankensteins, Line Stage and Super Victory II speakers in the future. I heard that system and its exactly the sound I'm looking for. Why I couldn't have heard that system BEFORE purchasing all my gear last year? I'm hoping the new GE cables will get me closer to the live performance sound I like so that I can enjoy what I have for a while.
Bob responded very promptly and sent my invoice immediately so I'm off to place my order now!
I have tried a few speaker cables including Audioquest type 4, JW Audio, Decware, Synergistic Research Element, Clear Day cables and the most expensive I've ever bought at 4K Morrow Grand Reference Elite. The CT cables were better than all of these cables by a long shot.
It is my opinion that these CT cables are the best I've heard. What I've noticed is that I have stopped looking at Audiogon ads for cables or looking for cable reviews to read. Something now seems missing in my life. I really enjoyed the goose chase and that next cable fix.
Lol, I hear you! I was a rep for 30 years and spent a lot of time studying and memorizing the package inserts and clinical trials you guys come up with. And yes, extremely regulated.
Okay, I read the "Philosophy" page and see the comments you refer to. Maybe not the best choice of words, but nothing to get hung about IMO.
The point offered to the sober is that Bob’s philosophy is not about cabling as jewelry and that Cerious cables offer sound quality far superior to commodity products not designed for audio.
No ... can't try everything can we... just challenging the claims; i am glad drs around the world don't make claims of that magnitude when it comes to curing cancer.
acman3, I've noticed this increased trolling trend lately with this site as well. Unfortunately I/we can't do much to stop it, goes with the open forum territory it seems. Charles
The grownups in the room make it worth tuning out the noise. It is a dilemma common to our time. I value free speech, therefor I have to defend the rights of those who want to shut down free speech (even in subtle ways), up to a point.
Hi mac48025, Brownsfan who just posted above has the Coincident Frankenstein, Line Stage and Super Victory II setup that you aspire to. He could undoubtedly provide you with valuable insight. Charles
As a brownsfan he and I have another thing in common.....lousy local football franchises. Detroit here. At least we can derive enjoyment from music!
Brownsfan, sorry if I missed this earlier in thread, but are you using GE cables with your Coincident system? I tried the Coincident Statement IC but it a tad bit of a harsh edge in my system. Sure they sound great in other systems. I'm hoping the GE interconnects and speaker cables will fit in just right with my components.
Lastly, Bob has been a real joy to deal with and has been very prompt in responding to emails and processing my order. His shipping time is unreal, when I asked if he was going to ship my order within the order he responded saying it was already shipped the day before I placed my order. Now THAT'S service! ;) Gotta love his sense of humor.
Mac48025, I am not using the GE's at this time. I am using VH Audio IC's, and I find them very much to my liking. They are silver, but not at all harsh or edgy. I have followed this thread and will probably give one of the GE's a try if I find that I need a new IC. I am currently doing some reconfiguring of my room, so it is not unlikely I will need some different lengths than I currently have.
