@mtbrider , Thosee Tea Light holders look awesome
Where To Buy Cable Elevators/Risers?
Don't Flame: I don't believe that such devices change sound, etc. Thank You. PHEW!
I want to buy some as I'm about to build my own custom length speaker cables. And would like some risers for the Aesthetics, Looks, Cool Factor, etc. Make my humble set-up look more Audiophilish, ha-ha.
They'll help keep them nicely routed and organized. And I don't want my homemade cables on my dingy floor. So any help with some cheap, nice looking ones would be great. I don't have a wood shop or hobby bench to make some. So buying is my only option. I've tried to CL some. But could't find any for sale.
Any and all Recs/Links will be appreciated. If all else fails, These look like a fun project. http//www.theanalogdept.com/diy_cable_elevators.htm The #4 picture. I'd use better looking lashings though. Thnx!

Kids play tunnels. Riffing the Enid Lumley cable tunnels. The great thing about these play tunnels is you can play Hide n Seek in them when you're not listening to music. Or even when you ARE listening. Yeah! https://www.amazon.com/4-way-Tunnel-Indoor-Outdoor-Hide-n-Side/dp/B01DYPQX9O/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&... Geoff Kait Machina Dynamica Advanced Audio Concepts |

If you do a search on ebay for "Ceramic/porcelain insulators" you'll find a multitude of these insulators, many of which are exactly the same as the brand name Cable Elevators that you'll find here on A'goN and elsewhere. Problem is that most sellers only have a few to sell and many times they are mismatched; finding a complete set is problematic. And many sellers seem to think that these insulators are as rare as hen's teeth but the exact opposite is true; ebay has 1000s' of these things for sale. |

My "cable elevators" are inexpensive but effective (as far as cleaning up the rats nest) and aesthetically pleasing. Got to eBay and buy some vintage glass insulators. You can even mix and match colors if you are so inclined. Secure the cables to the insulators with some inexpensive garden Velcro (the kind used to prop up plants) or go whole hog and buy some fancy tie-wraps (they'll probably be as expensive as the insulators;-) Here's a few examples: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-x2t9bFNfRhk/UCP8DhyeEMI/AAAAAAAAFK0/SQAU3VRU1Bc/s1600/one.jpg |
