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


  •  I'm looking at some porcelain cable lifters to get some power and speaker cable up off the floor.  Does raising the cables off the floor really make a difference? It's going to be about 200 bucks for 10 of them. Thanks.

No offence but the Townsend pods appear to be simply a variation of my steel springs which have been around almost as long as dirt. In fact my undamped Super Stiff Springs for heavy TT, amps and subwoofers most likely outperform since damping the springs spoils the sound a smidgen. Everything is relative.

Like others here have stated, thank you for your last few posts. It's so refreshing and uplifting to know your history and endeavors and that everything matters, despite the naysayers harangues.

The Townshend Pods are not simply damped springs, they are much more sophisticated than that. Their design is explained and effectiveness demonstrated in the video Max posted on You Tube.
Sophisticated? Well, excuse me! They look like springs covered with rubber.  
I guess I am lucky to avoid this form of audiophilia nervosa.  My speaker cables are short and suspended in the air between the amp and the speaker (Connections up high on the speaker).
