Stereophile Profiles Carpets and Curtains again ....

If you have a carpeted floor you can show off your speaker cable risers. They are made from space age polymers and are impregnated with crystals that decrease the static electricity affecting your sound stage and imaging.  You probably need 4-6 risers per cable depending on your length, at a cost of $300 per riser.

You guys are funny. My listening room is comfortable, because it has a thick Beni Ourain rug and drapes and furniture that (gasp!) matches and is upholstered. The softening qualities of the sofa, chairs, drapes and rug certainly temper the room, which is 12x18, with hardwood floors, plaster and windows.

If the room was fugly and not matchy, it wouldn't be the same experience.

Right on, JK.
