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


My cables are laying on the floor (in a mess), would raising them off the floor really make much of a difference? The problem is they are quite wide and too long  http://mgaudiodesign.com/planus3.htm so any suggested props are appreciated!  Cheers

@khughes: "So personally, not being terminally OCD, I have no desire to try endless tweaks - most if not all with no supporting rationale *why* they might, maybe, possibly could do something - using my "reference" best recording to see if some minute difference, on the ragged edge of perceptbility, might manifest itself."

So--Why bother commenting ? You haven't tried it, don't want to try it--don't believe it--how is that helpful to the OP ?  Who's handwaving now?
Note to self: there appears to be a growing schism between advanced audiophiles and the average Joe Blow in the street
As I said, it's been a hoot. Pronouncements from high atop Mount Pretentious are always quite comical when viewed in the light of reality.
It’s both patently obvious and amazing as to what lengths some go to, to frame their argument. All manner of speculation and implications are thrown into the mix in order to avoid the relevant topic at hand.
Honestly I prefer Caesar, while you prefer Word salad, so be it.
It’s so simple but they strive to make it so complex.
Ah, yes, Irony...such a lovely tool and yet so seldom employed with such panache. Bravo!
Anyway, Merry Christmas to All!
See you on the Catskills circuit.
All of those podunk towns will lap it up.

@Wyoboy - I was commenting that with the recordings being the most important determiner of sound quality - by a LONG shot - worrying about "tweaks" is rather pointless, especially given that we all know of many things - oh, I dunno, maybe room acoustics - that do indeed play a huge role in sound.  Maybe those 'joe blow' comments went under your head?
Oh, and please enlighten me on the method by which your whining post about me benefits the OP?
@nonoise, @geoffkait - LOL, as I said, you guys are a hoot. And so easy to incite.
