Speaker Cable Feet: Suggestions?

I went to an electric utility company and got a dozen ceramic insulators. These were used/replaced but in good condition. If you get the larger insulators, your cables just lay on top in the groove. I have my speakers cables and the interconnects to my monoblocks on these insulators.

Fiddler Ceramic is ceramic. Porcelin is something different.
And the dialectric makes no difference. They are just lying on top of it.

Natalie, I think you are very wrong. The dielectric is very important. That's one of the very reasons to get the cables off of the carpet to begin with. And I wish you would do some research before you make absolute pronouncements like "the dialectric makes no difference". There are many, many resources to confirm that dielectrics dramatically affect the signal. Please do some reading and "listening" before you tell everyone else the moon is made of cheese.

And the "ceramic insulators" typically only get the cables off of the carpet 2-3 inches. Static is another big problem with the carpet and I am not sure that 2-3 inches is enough to be effective. Rub a balloon in your hair, hold it a couple of inches away and you can certainly feel the static.

I am sure audioengr or someone else with a better mind can jump in here to expound.

Fiddler- Good job! John

I use cotton ribbon to elevate cables. My setup is a bit unusual, but in normal installations it can be tied to the back of racks, speaker stands, et cetera, or thumb tacked to walls. If some of the ribbon is visible just tie a nice bow and it will look odd but fine (better than having little "tinker toys" all over the floor).
