I have seen a lot of ideas concerning Cable lifters


I have seen a lot of ideas concerning Cable lifters and all seem to be pricy considering the value and appearance. But what if there was an answer that cost virtually nothing and you had the option to choose a multitude of designs and capabilities?
Glass is probably the best Neutral choice and what do we have in abundance. Used glasses (Goodwill). There are so many options around and possible just waiting one more day you can find exactly what you want and even if you don't like their choices there are options at stores that go far beyond what the High End Audio vendors offer. Here are a couple of examples:

@macg19 cool I get it. I use lifters for the dust bunnies. 
 

I use both the RCA and Speakon depending on the IA being used.

Did get these from Signal Cable and really like them, BTW you have a nice system.

@juanmanuelfangioii There are certainly many good reasons for good cable management. Mine isn't perfect and I'll clean it up a bit more when I'm so inclined.

What is IA?

I was considering Signal cable as well for the Speakon upgrade until I decided to go the RCA route. Signal makes great stuff and RELs price for their premium speakon cable is just silly.

Appreciate the compliment, thank you! 

For those that think this is HOKUM, take a brand new fully charged Car battery and set it on a concrete floor overnight and tell me how well that works out for you.

 

 

On the other hand, I am glad to see the numerous free-thinking minds chiming in here with their DIY projects.

Free thinking?

 

Most Audiophile upgrades offer such small advantages and the expense you pay for any one of them can be exorbitant, but with a little big or mental exercise, you can at least make sure your system has the best advantage with a minimal cost.
I will again suggest either glass (#1) or Ceramic (#2) as choices for lifters as glass is the least reactive.

What is the definition of reactive?
Chemically, direlectic constant?
what is it, and what are the numbers?

 

The only thing I am not sure of is whether the amount of lead in the glass makes a difference. I would think Low Lead to be the best but I have been proven wrong before and this opinion is made with Little thought on the subject. YES, ALL GLASS has some lead in it.

This is sounding like an alchemy lesson, or bent over a cauldron?
