Cable Elevators


Just curious if anyone is using cable elevators and what changes they brought about. I have read there are benefits to having cables raised off the carpet.

Hey guys, I tried to keep it real with 10c cable riser’s that will do as good as $400 ones WHICH IS NOTHING!!!

Don’t give this thread any more bumps, as it’s just more mileage for the "snake oil" company that pioneers this BS, and we all know who that is.

1- Go to the Walmart website.

2- Look up Grip-Rite Plastic Rebar High Chairs.

3- You will be offered a bag of 20, $8.92 delivered. I found them in my local Walmart for even cheaper.

4- Spend the $ you saved on music.
I tried elevators a few years ago and couldn’t hear the difference. I think it depends on what cable and what carpet you have. Worth trying.
I have my cables on Ikea glass candle holders that sell for about $.49/each. It's been that way for a long time now. After reading the dreck that usually pops up here, I remembered Pierre Sprey (Mapleshade) having something to say about them. 

Looking it up, he's of the mind that cables should be at least 8" off the carpet to be free of it's effects. Already having a 6" 4x4, I went to the local hardware store and got four more cut to the same length for a whopping $10! Someone call the cable riser nannies! 

It took about half an hour for the cables to settle in from the moving but there is more clarity now, even more than the 1 1/2" Ikea glass candle holder afforded. 

This is a very cheap thing to try for yourself, so what's all the hubbub about?

All the best,
