Cable elevators


My Saturday hifi tweaking involved digging out the family’s box of wooden building blocks and using them to elevate my speaker cables off the floor. Previously under an area carpet on a wood floor. Mc 601s to SF Amati with Wireworld speaker cables (to be replaced with Cardas). 
 

The result—mind you the system is playing really well right now thanks to my new Cardas interconnects—is greater clarity (I think), sound stage, and texture. This is definitely about wringing out the last ounce of the system and maybe I’m imagining the improvement. I don’t think I’d spend any money on buying risers, but what the hell why not use the old building block. Looks dopey and the family laughs at me, but dang does the system sound amazing.

Anyone else play with risers/elevators?

after telling my friend in Florida, who is in the audio .business about my elevated speaker cables, he recommended these. I now have a set of 10, which can also be purchased on audiogon.

my system has improved a little bit over the guitar stands that I was using. I’m now able to get my main power cord off the floor, along with my speaker cables.

 

That looks like a great source for lifters. All 3D printed, and quite a few different designs, such as ones specifically for ribbons.. I like the suspension lifters. And very cheap prices compared to audio industry lifters.
