Speaker cable lifters.

Hey gang. What are your takes on speaker cable lifters ? Is there any truth to this ? I was thinking about purchasing some for my Straightwire Crescendos. Which are very thick speaker cables btw also. Diameter is over 1 in. Also my B&W 800 Matrix speakers are also quad wired so there are about 2 speaker cables for ea speaker that sits on top of the other. Would that matter ? Thanks in advance.

' I really would like to call up a professional to come to look at my room and see what I really need for wall and ceiling diffusers / dampers'

A mic/room EQ program will show what going on. Just a guess, but diffusion is the issue to manage?

Controlling the room over tweaky addons would be seem to be the more important thing to address.

The OP has a high level system in what looks to be a challenging space.

Are room acoustics- damping/diffusion fully addressed? The ceiling/speaker arraignment has to be affecting overall SQ?

Leaning forward and eye squinting will probably have the same effect as cable lifters. Naturally-YMMV.

Expanding on wolfies comment- the entire room floor needs to be on a Minus K isolation platform for "true" vibration elimination.
