Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference?

I  actually saw a system once where the owner had his $5K speaker cables taped to on-end toilet paper rolls (presumably by now he has special $1000 stands made of some extinct rare wood or mastodon ivory  or something).

I'm afraid that I laughed out loud (and when he blind A/Bed it I couldn't hear any of the 'immense difference' that he was claiming.

I’ve never been able to detect a difference, but I figure why not. I use Legos. Can be configured to any cable, height, even carpet color. $10

My vintage 1986 Monster Cables work flawlessly.  I don't run them along the floor.  They come out of the back of the cabinet at a very slight downward angle.  Then they get suspended from push pins with synthetic strings from the wall angling downward towards the speakers.  We all know current  flows better going downhill.....;-)

Vibration is part of music, or is in fact what music IS really. Since many can't get away from this music thing messing with your cables and components to a degree that causes symptoms of elitism, maple worship, and sad component isolation and cable embarrassment ("Please sir, take me off of this toilet paper roll."), any audio freak worth their status as Esteemed One Who Knows What Clearly You Don't, or EOWKWCYD, should remedy these stultifying issues by simply keeping  your components away from music. Leave it off...it still looks great just sitting there...dust it once in a while.

This thread is better than beers.  Better even than self-indulgence.
