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

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!

Nice to meet ya, Joe Blow! 

See you on the Catskills circuit.
All of those podunk towns will lap it up.

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?

@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.

So is it a cloud?  Hey may be it's pre heliocentric universe?  Like watching soccer but you can't see the ball.

Maybe it's true there's an audiophile Darth Vader that created an empire for all the snake oils to thrive.  How else can you explain it?   I am dead serious.
