Cable Supenders - Anyone Try Vibrapods?

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!

I have noticed quite a difference in the sound depending on what my Kimber cable does and does not touch. It does not like the synthetic carpet at all (neither do we:-) which clouds the highs (I don't know if this is caused by static or by some other reaction between the plastics involved). It does not like touching the walls (drywall) and assume that this interference is caused by vibration. I cannot hear a difference when it touches cotten rugs (over the carpet) or wood (pine), but prefer to have all of the wires and cables hanging in the air from component to component as this is a simple way to avoid any problems. I use cotton ribbon ties to hang cable when needed if there is an excess. I am working on a new setup (and location) that will be optimal in this reagrd. I would guess that other cables may not be as touchy. Another nice touch is separating the left and right signal and speaker cables from one another.

I've also tried and hear no difference - I don't think, how many of these tweaks are in our minds?
