Keeping cables off the floor


Does keeping interconnects and speaker cables off the floor make sense? What differences would you expect in a high resolution system ? What would you use to separate them from the floor? What 's the idea behind this tweak? Suggestions are eagerly awaited....

Thanks a ton for these enlightening posts, gentlemen! Lots of enspiring ideas..I'll start experimenting. Happy listening to you all.
Hm, sounds interesting, Alexc,the material is not conductive, though I believe some foams are, should isolate.....its worth trying.
Alexc: I use a toilet paper roll to protect the ends of my Mapleshade digital IC's (they are very close to a wall thermostat that sees much activity) and they don't sound like crap:-) Never thought of using bubble wrap though.
I have tried this tweak very carefully evaluating it, and I hear no noticable improvement or change in sound. I at first
thought this worth doing and an engineer friend of mine came
over and shook his head when he saw the elevated cables, he chuckled and insisted I prove to him that this improved the sound. After several tracks with and without I had to admit I heard no difference in sound when cables were elevated.
