Home made cable lifters.


I was wondering if any of the a`gon members have come up with an inexpensive and effective way to get these things off the deck.

Sorry, I forgot to mention a very important aspect of implementing the fishing line to cable interface.

Do not under any circumstances tie the lines too tightly around the cable, as it tends to constrict both frequency response and soundstage size. Leave just a little room for the signal to breath.

Also never use a metallic line, since it could act as an antenna to capture RFI and add it to the signal.
Stoneware coffee cups - supplemented with a pint or two of your favorite microbrew. As Slipknot1 said - plastics are bad. You want something that doesn't generate static electricity easily and is non-conductive.

Relax, have a New Glarus Fat Squirrel and listen to some Grateful Dead.........

I use styrofoam cups from Dollar Tree. 3 stacked together almost equal the recommended 8 inches. Total cost=one dollar.
Mmakshak, stacking styrofoam cups three high and spray painted flat black would look pretty cool as well. I think I`ll try that.
