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

audiozenology"Carpets are often made of one of those "fancy" dielectrics, i.e. polypropylene, and polyethylene, and because it is a open weave"

Here is another topic where you are confused, misinformed, or else are trying to deceive. Polypropylene is very rarely used in carpet manufacturing because it has very poor wear qualities it’s most common use is for a "turf" or grass-like carpet which may be what you have in you’re living room but that is not most people’s taste it is much more common to see nylon as the fabric "of choice." Polyethylene would be used for an outdoor carpet not an indoor one.

Neither are these floor coverings "open weave" because they are not woven like a fine rug made from wool, silk, or cotton but rather they are "tufted" and this is true of a "commercial" type "loop" carpet which is continuous filament and also true of carpets with a real pile which is called "cut pile."


"Of course a worse dielectric than wood and much worse than carpet would be porcelain what those cable insulators are typically made of."

If they are such poor insulators why do electric utilities around the world use them maybe they have acquired, assembled, and studied more data, knowledge and research than you?

audiozenology"Weave "to form by interlacing threads"

You can keep insisting that you are correct it just makes it sad to watch you because a berber carpet is not woven it is tufted but I know it hurts you to have any of you're errors, mistatements, or false claims corrected I can only suggest you be more factual prior to posting.

audiozenology"Weave is a somewhat generic term meaning interlacing. A Berber carpet weaves a loop into a backing "

No it does not for that to be true such a carpet would have to be made on a weaving machine but it is not it is tufted they are two very different things that is a simple fact that you can either accept or continue to argue against kind of like a fish out of water that hopelessly flops about.

audiozenology"Clearthink, If you are going to troll me, which appears to be what you are doing, then you better sharpen your pencil or your Google skills, or go back to school."
It is time for you to understand and accept that those who correct you're errors, confusions, and inaccurate representations are not trolls but simply explaining for the benefit of others and if you do not stop these attacks and personal insults on me it will be an other matter for the moderators to have to address with you so please show them some respect for them, stick to the facts, and tolerate if not welcome those who choose to also post here.
