Lifters ForGetting Cables Off The Floor, Worth It Or Snake Oil

Geoff has as comrade in arms with Teo weighing in on the question raised by the OP.  I hear nothing but pablum from the two of them.  Kooky nonsense, really.  However, if there is some benefit from elevating speaker cable, then get a saw and cut up some 2X4's with a notch to elevate cable and see if it is worthwhile.  I see lots of rooms at audio shows that use pricey cable elevators so maybe there is some benefit to it.  Try the no-cost approach first to see if there is some benefit to the elevation process.  Frankly, I have a life to live and cable elevation is not an audio anxiety with which I choose to engage.  However, a discussion of the sonic differences between NOS tube variants, yes, that is a worthwhile discussion.  My carpet-dwelling speaker cables make my system sing.   Relaaaax and enjoy the music.  Cheers,Whitestix

So much dust and debris collects on a floor even with good housekeeping, and cables are expensive. You wouldn't store a favorite sweater on the floor, so why not raise the cables, if only to keep them clean?

Stop don't go there.  I did buy
Porcelain lifters. Black with white
Top .    i now  set them on top of my 2 amps. & place 6 in a box they came on.  Cover  5 blocks of wood
With tape.  And spend the rest on
A very nice tequila  

This simply proves that some of us should not be left out of the house.

I use cable elevators because I like the idea that the cables are off the carpet. Do they sound better? Maybe, maybe not, but they look good to me. My 2 cents...
