I tried the lifter and the grounding caps....neither worked for my system. No difference at all
A Couple Little Things I'm Wondering About
Two quick questions for anyone with any experience with either topic.
1. Why do some folks with usually higher end systems use those cable lifters to keep the cable elevated? What are they intended to do? If you use them, what do they do for you please? And if you know do they make sense from a purely technical standpoint?
2. I bought a bunch of those gold plated caps to cover all the unused RCA jacks on the back of my AVR. I believe they are intended to keep noise down. If you use these, please comment on them. Do you think they do what they're supposed to do, and/or do they make sense from a purely technical standpoint?
Thanks!

Millercarbon has a splendid imagination. And the people who heard my system, they all imagine the same? How do you explain Deborah hearing it even with her eyes closed? https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/8367#&gid=1&pid=10 Your blind MDS hatred is getting the better of you again, Mike. Tweaks are pornography for audiophilesShouldn't have gone there. Cut you slack for so long now, but Oh well. You did. Too late now. Sounds like something a measurebator would say. https://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/7.htm See Equipment Measurebator: Bottom Level 1 (Hell). You ever want to try and claw your way up from the bottom let me know. But first you have to knock off the insults and apologize. Yeah. Congratulations. You made the list. Bye! |
facten To each his own experience and YMMV. I was skeptical about cable elevators but decided what the hell give them a try . I have found they make a difference whether the cables are on wood floors or carpet. The benefit in my 2 systems was apparent right away . I'll +1 millercarbon on these statements he made. Thanks. Unfortunately as you can see those of us actually willing to try and listen are outnumbered and insulted for the crime of being audiophiles with the audacity to LISTEN and CARE what things sound like. They have driven off a number of highly accomplished audiophiles. We got rid of one, and a big one, so that's a start. This site needs a total house cleaning. Appreciate any and all help. |
