Tuning Collars on speaker cables - concept and any good?

Hello all,
I was wondering if someone can tell me what the effect is in the "real world" of having tuning collar on speaker cables. Are such tuning collars any good (for example Stealth Audio offers them)? Is there any downside by having them?

It would be great to hear from other fellow goners who have first hand experience with them, if possible with Stealth Audio cables.
Cheers and thank you for sharing your information
Mike

Tuning infers a process that is somewhat predictable. Randomly mucking with the signal passing through a cable sounds like playtime for bored audiophiles.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Trying to distort your signal in a good way that is.  Fun! 😘 Fun! 😘Fun!  😘

Yes some people love to play with new audio toys, especially fancy or esoteric  expensive ones and strain to hear or convince themselves of some meaningful difference so lots of merit there
