Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference?


My cables are laying on the floor (in a mess), would raising them off the floor really make much of a difference? The problem is they are quite wide and too long  http://mgaudiodesign.com/planus3.htm so any suggested props are appreciated!  Cheers

I’ve  been an audiophile for 30 years and I don’t hear a difference at all.
That said, I still raise them off the floor because I know there is static electricity on the floor. (Especially in the dry winter months)
My OCD is at ease knowing the cables are safe!!!!!

I use a couple of 1” round rubber grommets under them. (Can be found at any hardware store) I drilled a small hole through them and tie wrapped them to the cable so they don’t move. 
I use custom length 6 foot Transparent “Ultra” cables. ($3600.00). 
Don’t listen to anyone,,,,,,,,just listen!!!!!!!! Let your own ears be the judge. Or just do it if you have OCD like me!!!!!
