Cable Supenders - Anyone Try Vibrapods?


Wondering if anyone had tried Vibrapods or other compliant material feet (AQ Sorbothane?) as cable suspenders. Any opinions as to why this would or would not work as well as the special, outrageouly priced ceramic suspenders?

If ceremic lifters are used to remove static charges from carpets, then I assume there's no need for such lifters if you're setup is on hardwood floor?
I bought decorative glass blocks to lift my power strips. I gotta say I don't notice anything but it does look more organized. Somebody told me to have them at different heights so the digital is on its side and the amp lays flat. Can anybody explain the varying heights to me?
Sean - good tip. Will look into that. Still haven't heard a good reason for why ceramic is better, though. If the principle is to isolate the cables from the static electricity generated by the carpet and ceramic is good because it's a good insulator...then vibrapods or any "suspender" made of a non-conductive,polymeric material ought to be just as good. My guess would be that ceramic is used instead of rubber or other non-conductive polymers in industrial power application because it is more durable/resist atmospheric elements better. Then again, I'm not an electric engineer. Still..worth doing a bit more research on this. I'll report my findings back in a day or two...
I have tried putting Vibrapods under my cables (on carpet over wood floor) and could hear no difference so I removed them. They looked sort of tacky IMO. It seems to me that there are two considerations that need to be addressed, vibrations and static electricity.

I wouldn't think ceramic would have any way of reducing vibrations-- may even focus them? But Vibrapods should reduce or eliminate both? No? Cheers. Craig.
One poster here used inverted & shortened styrofoam cups as cable elevators. I've never tried it, but if it works for you then the cups could be spraypainted a dark color to hide them somewhat. For me this is one of those things I'd view quite skeptically, but then again I used to laugh at the thought of AC cabling affecting sound too, until I tried it. Not laughing anymore!
