Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables
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.

lak, Your statement is similar to Ricky Nelson's song, The Garden Party. "You can't please everyone so you got to please yourself". Folks I warned you at the beginning of this thread. Bob is not set up for a huge influx of orders. Never has and probably never will. But for those who are patient and appreciate the high quality sound obtained from his design you will be rewarded. Search out the video as to how these cables are produced. They are nothing like the mass produced stuff that costs much more with their high $ advertising, dealers and such. No Bob, wants to control the manufacturing in a way that guarantees that the quality is built into each and every product. ozzy. |
I waited for 3 weeks to get my GE PCs and ICs, and loved them so much. Then I ordered my speaker cable and another IC (XLR to RCA special order) this time. It took a month for the delivery and I finally got them this week. But, once I received and hooked them up to my system, I forgot all my frustration for the long delayed delivery. I am very happy with every single one of them. My only frustration now is thinking myself that I've spent so much money and time for the items that all GE SC, IC and PC have replaced. rence |

Hi Bob, hug and a belated congrats back to you! Your business philosophy is a very sound one with your current product offerings. As for some of the comments, I prefer a longer wait for a product with extreme price/quality ratio than what the industry average offers. John, I thought you went through the renovations before or it this the second iteration? |

Thanks lancelock for the support. When I ran Unity Audio we had 120 dealers in 16 countries and all I did was run a company 16 hours a day with almost 5 years without a day off.I never had time to develop new product or have a life. Cerious was profitable in its second day of operations. Life is about relationships and I am attempting to forge a business model that fosters knowing my customers (and supporting them) long term. Anyone who understands manufacturing and profitability knows that the highest level of return on investment occurs at maximum production capacity. You WANT production strained. Any underutilized capacity costs you money. As far as communication, anyone tried to get help from Amazon or PayPal lately? Talk to the computer! My first priority goes to those that have paid for product - getting them a hand made product at an incredible price. Could I miss some opportunities for sales? Absolutely. But we must always realize where these opportunities came from - incredible cables at an incredible price. This is the fundamental mission and "sales strategy" of Cerious. I am EXACTLY where I want to be. Life is wonderful (Group hug!...sorry got a little carried away there...). Bob |
joecasey is correct in his assessment and very much on point with loosing potential customers. That lost revenue could drive a next and even better generation of cables and/or improve manufacturing of the existing line so as to drive the cost down, despite hiring additional personnel. as to looking elsewhere if impatient already have... |
kclone Why? It appears he's not meeting demand so losing PROFITS in lost sales. So the potential lost sales can support a new position??? He has a lot of demand right now, but there is no guarantee it is going to that will continue 6 months from now and beyond. Yep, this is where the fun starts in running a business. |
In my business, I already am saddled with a large enough payroll as it is. I don't blame Bob if he doesn't want to grow any bigger than a one man operation and have all of the headaches that go with it. It seems no matter how much you grow, you will still not please everyone and I tell some customers there are other choices in the marketplace for them to choose from. Bob is very honest, he has stated how his operation works. Rather than calling Bob disrespectful perhaps another cable manufacturer will fill ones immediate needs. I hear they're cranking em out in China. |
Oh sure, like we haven't heard the daughter's wedding excuse before.... please. Just move on if not happy with the service. Power of the purse! philipwu Well, one has to decide if this is a business or hobby. It's disrespectful can't reply to POTENTIAL customers inquiries in a timely manner. This is one of the reason this hobby remains a boutique business. |
hi, to those waiting for Bob's reply, please stay clam and don't vent your frustration here. Kindly give him a break for whatever he maybe busy with. We all have a life, be it in work or play. Try to use alternative email methods, perhaps audiogon system work for him. some suggested to him getting more staff to handle communication and sales etc.. so whom is going to pay for that extra person salary? guess that it would be us to pay in the end when Cerious raise price for the cables, isn't it ? -philip |
If I might change the subject, Modwright owners take note. Bob Grost made a graphene umbilical for me as an alternative to the "Truth" umbilical that Modwright provides. Used between my Modwright modified Sony 5400es and its separate PS 9.0 power supply, it is more resolving than the very good "Truth" cable. |
Sorry guys...My daughter got married on Saturday and my forwarding did not materialize. I am back in the office and will get to everyone tomorrow morning! I will leave ti up to everyone to decide if attending one's daughter's wedding is unbecoming. Working on the website and my apologies again. Bob from Cerious...Hugs! |
Agreed, been waiting for than a month to hear from Bob after exchanging emails, one indicating he would call me the next day. Glad his business is doing gang-busters but perhaps some additional personnel to help put things in order would benefit both his business and his customers (potential or otherwise). |
How do you guys get in touch with Cerious? I sent email to get pricing and order CT GE speaker cables two weeks ago and still no response. What is the current pricing for speaker cables, power cords? Are there any price list? Bob if you that busy and business is booming, may be you should hire some help to communicate with customers. No matter how good your cables are, your customer service should be more efficient. Thank you. |

I now have about 160 hours on the power cords and IC's. These have really opened up. I wish I didn't post my first impressions, and instead just waited to get some time on them before posting. In short, things have really opened up, no longer is the stage constricted and the tone, texture, dynamics and frequency extension is all VERY good. Very happy with these cables. |

jmcgrogan2...Yes and no..I did have the 'red' CT GE pc on my Lumin...where I use the CPT-300 and found the CPT better...I cannot..due to space constraints..have a CPT on my amps...but , that being said, the 'high current' blue CT GE pcs are superb on my SET amps. I like what the CPT does for the blackness and instumental separation. |
