Lifters ForGetting Cables Off The Floor, Worth It Or Snake Oil

I'm looking at some porcelain cable lifters to get some power and speaker cable up off the floor. Does raising the cables off the floor really make a difference? It's going to be about 200 bucks for 10 of them. Thanks.

It works beautifully. https://www.etsy.com/listing/947935875/audio-speakers-cable-management-riser To be honest. It does make a different but I am not going to spend 200 bucks for it. I have compared them side by side, the result just the same. But if you want to remove any RF interfere, you really should lift the speaker cables above the floor.

When the guy discovered that my son was technically very prepaired he answered; "well at least they look very cool"
