NEW Cerious Technologies Upgrade - Graphene Matrix Cables

Anyone know the difference between Ver 1 and Ver 2 Matrix cables, particularly the speaker cables?

when I purchased my Matrix directly from Cerious, i was also able to purchase a set of matrix jumpers...not sure if these are still available...

Hi everyone! May I ask what CT Matrix speaker cable owners use as jumpers? I just ordered some Jumpers for Graphene Extremes and I have decided to go for Matrix speaker cables instead of the GEs I have on loan from a friend. I do not want anything diminishing the sound of the Matrix cables.

The Name Graphene Lumniscate comes from the combination of Luminescence (Light) and the term Lemniscate, which is the mathematical formula for that which we [filtered] an “Infinity” sign. Together we get an Infinite light. 
While every new product would seem to be a new design or concept, not so with Lumniscate. That is because designer Robert Grost does not do things the way “Normal” people do. The entire process of designing and manufacturing cables begins where every project begins with Mr. Grost – with the design of the theoretically perfect cable. Invariably, these designs cannot be produced and put into real world form. But...that is the point. Through this process radical manufacturing processes are developed over time that ultimately prove to be more valuable than a mere cable or consumer product would be. Graphene Lumniscate is not a radical departure from Graphene Extreme or Graphene Matrix. Graphene Lumniscate is a large step closer to our ideal conductor with entirely new concepts in material science. 
Not limited by cost constraints Cerious Technologies was able to break down barriers previously limiting the performance of both Extreme and Matrix. Indeed, one element of Lumniscate is the unique approach to Grounds, utilizing proprietary large crystal 6N (99.9999%) pure Silver ribbon conductors made for Cerious Technologies in Germany. Each foot was polished after extrusion to a mirror finish so that the equally proprietary aqueous Graphene and Ceramic solution would not adhere to the Ribbons themselves, but would move to fill every void surrounding each ribbon. This Graphene and Ceramic solution not only fills in the gaps to form one coherent conductor, but also acts as an efficient Damper. Graphene, after all, is individual atoms of Carbon. Lumniscate has raised the bar, achieving damping at the Atomic level. The silent backgrounds that Matrix is so well known for have been surpassed by a surprising margin in Lumniscate. They are now scary... 
Matrix was a large step up from Extreme, especially with regard to low level signal devices, namely interconnect and digital cables. Due to their smaller scale more elements of our ideal design were able to be instituted. In Lumniscate we have functionally turned our Loudspeaker Cables and Power Cords into large signal “interconnects” utilizing the same 6N 99.9999% pure Silver as the backbone of all Graphene Lumniscate products. Every inch is custom made and configured even before each individual conductor is hand made out of this pure Silver, Carbon Fiber (made by Toray, the finest available), Graphene and Liquid Ceramic which acts as the agent for our aqueous Graphene. Each conductor is housed in a medical grade Teflon tube, and then hand wound into a specific configuration within the outside jacket. Our aqueous Graphene solution is then flowed into our outer tube to surround the individual conductors and “lock” them into place. This process does require some time for the Graphene o move into place. For this reason, users should avoid moving Lumniscate once connected within a system, as this damping will improve over several weeks yielding quieter backgrounds over time.

lancelock,

Apparently Bob gets so many questions he is no longer able to answer them. So I bought two used Cerious power cords instead to try in my system. I hope Bob’s health is good to go now, and that the business prospers.

same as the Graphene Matrix, not something totally new is my guess...

What Bob has something new? What is it called？ And is it a whole new series of cable?

A friend and I just bought the new version of Bob's interconnects and power cords.

Last time I heard from him was on August 4, please be considerate before jumping to conclusions on his reaction time, Bob is great to work with and to my ears his products represent best value today

Both the new interconnects and power cords are the best sounding I've heard so far.

Most striking is how effortlessly they deliver dynamics and energy, they're making my Wilson speakers sound great at low and high volume levels

cheers

Wow!   I haven't been here for a while.  Glad you pulled through Bob!  I definitely agree that life is a blessing.

Looking forward to hearing more about the speakers!

Patience will pay off if you want great sounding cables. Bob runs a very small business, he doesn’t have a receptionist, sales team or 9 - 5 employees to answer phones and emails. He could be on vacation or off watching his daughter get married or simply living life on his terms.  Bob is a standup guy and if you send him money for cables you will get them so you’re a little off base there. If you really can’t wait, there are big distributors like music direct where you can buy Audioquest or other big name products. I like buying direct for half the price you would pay through regular distribution. I love these small companies which offer American made gear. I have also owned Mad Scientist cables, and they don’t compete with Cerious Tech. All you need is a little patience.

After 5 days and two emails still no reply from Bob. Makes me very glad I did not place an order with him, I'd probably never receive anything. I guess I've lost interest, maybe Mad Scientist Audio will respond to emails.

@charliee, It looks like they are in business, https://www.vongaylordaudio.com/

@charliee 

I’m not familiar with them

@lancelock 

One other question, do you know if Von Gaylord is still in business?

@lancelock 

Copy that.

@charliee 

you should contact Bob. Email is the best way to get him. There was a trial period a few years back when I got my cables. He has some new products coming.

Does anyone know if there is a trial period? I don't see anything about returns on the webpage. 

Glad to hear you are on the mend, Bob. You might consider looking in  the work of Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn of the Cleveland Clinic who has had remarkable success in clearing major arteries through plant-based nutrition. He has a book that's worth reading. He was also the cardiologist that worked with Bill Clinton.

BTW, I'm still very much enjoying your cables!

Speedy recovery and all the best from a serious Cerius fan.  

rgrost,

Good luck in your recovery, and I look forward to your new products!

BTW, I have also had some serious health issues of late. Makes you appreciate what is important.

Bob,

I’m glad you’ve recovered from this. I understand since I’m of that age where I seem to be going to the doctor constantly. I’m still listening to my system through your brilliant cables. I can’t wait to hear these new speakers you speak of. Keep up the good work.

Lance

Bob, I'm surprised to hear about your health issue but am very glad to hear you made a full recovery. Keep on rocking ;-)

Hi Everybody...Bob from Cerious. I wanted to update you all and personally thank everyone for the support over the years. On May 2nd my wife left for work and shortly after I collapsed with tremendous chest pains. I called 911 and was transported to the hospital. All very surprising in that I am in really good shape and continue to teach spin as an instructor and work out every day. My heart was not the problem...I had 75% blockage of the main arteries of the heart and my heart had been compensating for years. I hiked Thunderbird mountain the day before in 95 degree heat with no problems. I was prepped and rushed into a Quadruple bypass surgery. 

My level of health has lead to record recoveries and after six weeks I was cleared to drive and begin full workouts at my club. NO WORK, though. 

I am finally cleared to start work again and having your own business it is a mess being away so I wish to apologize for any and all problems I may have caused. What is most frustrating is we were readying to release a large number of new products, including what I believe to be the most radical loudspeaker ever produced. It employs the first "prefect crossover" ever devised and here is the kicker - they operate OUTSIDETHE SIGNAL PATH! The only thing you listen to is a piece of Graphene cable. We are working on a video series, too to actually teach acoustic theory and how loudspeakers (actually) work and Yes we do prove how the crossovers work outside the signal path. 

More news to come with regard to new products. It looks like I am going to live a long time cannot wait to get going. It is amazing what something like this does to your view of life. Bless you all and please let the daily crap flow off of you in to the oblivion. Life is a blessing. Live each day to its fullest!

Peace...

Bob

First of all I apologize for the lack of communication this year. It has been difficult to maintain any sort of optimism with the never ending assault of fear and lock downs.
