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

andy, your dedication to following my posts, and the amount of time you spend commentating on them,  has me blushing!

When my forum essays are finally collected in to book form, you'll be first on my Christmas list!   (Maybe you could even write the forward for the book!).

Cheers :-)

Might work, might not. Only way to know is to try. I did ,and it made no difference.

i spray my cables down with anti static spray ever couple days, and that makes for cleaner sounding music. And it likely does about the same thing as raising cables is supposed to do. 

I also so shut off my power conditioner when i’m not using it, and reboot my modem every couple of days (my system is server-based), and run a demag track every two days. Same general purpose. Music just sounds smoother, more lifelike, less grainy, more open. Like cable lifting is supposed to do. 

Everything you you try is going to be system and room dependent. Even when something makes a difference, it might well not be a good difference. And even good differences are almost certainly going to be incremental" there are no magic bullets out there.

Maybe my posts are in a sort of superposition to your own, and if you never look at them or comment on mine, they won’t exist.

But at this rate, without your being able to stop yourself, we’ll never know... ;-)

We’re in this together, bud!
