Lifters ForGetting Cables Off The Floor, Worth It Or Snake Oil


  •  I'm looking at some porcelain cable lifters to get some power and speaker cable up off the floor.  Does raising the cables off the floor really make a difference? It's going to be about 200 bucks for 10 of them. Thanks.

I made some with 2 inch thick leftover oak from a prior job. The benefit I was seeking was  to allow easier dusting and to relieve some of the strain on the connections from the weight of the cables. For those reasons it worked. As far as sound improvement goes I never thought of it in those terms and never noticed any past the cables own qualities. 

As a side, some of you IMHO should understand this "snake oil" some keep using to attack anything they may disagree with is not in the right context. The litigation of snake oil was in that the product had NO snake oil in it , the product actually DID work as claimed. Which is not the case in any of the naysayers beliefs that none of them work.
