Cable Elevators - What do you use?

If the electomagnetic field is radiating outward from the cable and it is interacting with objects not associated with the audio system -what difference could it make to the unaltered signal that is still carried in the cable unless it is reinjected back into the cable in some way?

How would the altered signal get back into the cable?

I use pint or bomber beer bottles with sand in the bottom for weight and long wooden skewers to form a "V" to hold the cable. I elevate all my cables. I haven't heard a difference between the British and German ales however. :-)

I use slats from old wooden wine boxes to elevate my cables, just cut a groove and stand them up.

I notice that old French wine crates work best for European classical and California wine crates work best for American pieces.

Strangely enough some tests with beer cartons also made significant improvements. Budweiser Lite was good with Kenny G, whereas Becks set the proper mood for Lou Reed and John Cale.

Not surprising, Lone Star beer cartons were clearly superior with Hank WIlliams and even Johnny Cash.

Don't ask me to explain it, it's just the way the test turned out. Before I was an audiophile there was Bob Hope and Johnny Cash. After all these tweaks there is no hope and no cash.

"How does the effect on the field radiated out affect the signal still in the cable?" It could affect the signal still in the cable the same way a ferrite affects the flow of high frequencies through a cable. A transformer works by placing a coil of wire next to another conductor, which then presents a load to the conductor carrying the signal. I have not played with cable elevators, and can't speak first hand about their effectivity, but the idea doesn't seem totally impossible.

Hi Albert,THANKS I'm still laughing.
