Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference?
@spoumouzert:   I had the same question and found an old thread on this forum where someone recommended tealight holders from IKEA--50 cents each made of glass--so i ordered 10 to lift the cables and see if there's a difference--$5 + shipping expe...

Has anyone seen this? A really beautiful turntable
The only review i read (on Positive Feedback) claims that the wobble disappears once you get the table perfectly level.  That reviewer also unnecessarily advocated upgrading cart, PC and interconnects.  Mag-Lev's website says 30 day money back gua...
