Speaker cable lifters.
Hey gang. What are your takes on speaker cable lifters ? Is there any truth to this ? I was thinking about purchasing some for my Straightwire Crescendos. Which are very thick speaker cables btw also. Diameter is over 1 in. Also my B&W 800 Matrix speakers are also quad wired so there are about 2 speaker cables for ea speaker that sits on top of the other. Would that matter ? Thanks in advance.
Given your amazing system. Absolutely. They are likely to make a small difference, but those add up. They are virtually free in comparison to any of our components. I’d still gently move your amps back. I tested them some thirty years ago… bought a bunch of ceramic electrical insulators for… I don’t remember $10 each. They have been in all my systems since. |
There’s this thread from a few weeks ago: https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/cable-elevators-5 If I were you, I’d skip past the naysayers and get some Tinker Toys and assemble your lifters on the cheap to see if you can hear a difference. They’d be able to hold the weight of your cables and if you do hear an improvement, then you can go onto something fancier or just leave it as is. I got the idea of Tinker Toys after seeing a YouTube video of Danny over at GR Research saying they work for resolving systems. As for myself, I just hang them off my wall with 3M wall hooks since my SCs are thin and light. I dare say, your speakers are aesthetically, the perfect fit for your room. All the best, |
