How much space between cables is enough?
I understand that proximity between power cables and interconnects or power cables and power cables is a problem, but is there a rule of thumb as to how much space is required to NOT be a problem. 1/2", 1", 6"? Also, are all cables the same? I would assume that the higher the current, the more isolation, but belief and reality are seldom the same.

Researching the idea of suspending cables I came across a post on another site about using rebar chairs for this. They come in different sizes and look like they would enable the rubber band trick. Cheap hack if you think it would work. Personally I doubt I could hear the difference but if I ever get things settled down enough that I'm not always moving stuff around I might give it a try. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Hercules-3-in-Rebar-Chair-100-Pack-912/204220121 And rather than buying incredibly expensive audiophile vibration isolation gadgets I would love to know why these guys wouldn't work almost as well: https://www.supplyhouse.com/sh/control/product/~product_id=MP-3E |
@pinwa, good calls imho.... The r-bar chairs could be hot glued onto a strip of wood, spray the thing to match the floor. Fab spaced as needed, spaced as desired... Cheap seats.....pardon d pun....;) Better: EVA 'twist chair & wood....*S* EVA under makes it non-slippish... The suggest EVA would work & look nice, but that's lotsa $ for a ribby tiny thing. Instead.... Get EVA where I do.... https://tntcosplaysupply.com/product/extra-thick-eva-foam/ This page has the thicker sheets; there's thinner available, and others in different densities. Glues, cutting things, all that.... What's left over you can make into your audioholic hat....beats that tinfoil ones y'all seem to be drawn to....*smirk* If you must cheap out, they have seconds'.... |
I would love to know why these guys wouldn't work almost as well: A very common mistake. Why does why matter? What matters is if. Not why. If. You can go round and round to infinity fantasizing about why. Or you can get spend five bucks and in five minutes listen and know. One way you find out. Other way you never know. Choose wisely. And when you find out, let us know. |
