Cable elevators



Ok,

Im kind of bewildered by this one.

I'll admit, it certainly adds a nice cosmetic aspect to a stereo.
Ive never seen these for sale in any High end audio places. What is the purpose of these?
Do they make a difference in sound quality?
Are they purely cosmetic?
Do they serve some other practical function unrelated to sound?

I do like how they make everything seem a little bit more organzied.

To use a single Rite-Way Suspender under my Omega Mikro speaker cables, I had it on a large piece of stryrofoam. Once the right side fell off the Suspender and was just on the stryrofoam block. While I was listening I noticed that my highs were gone on the right speaker. While it took a while, putting the cables up on the Suspender again corrected the problem. You will never find computer chips in styrofoam because of this static problem.
Cable elevators...This is another type of audio-jewelry only
But if you have an extra money...why not
Let me throw a mokey ranch in here. When you place a cable between two supporting point, doesn't that create a classical string boundary problem. Just like a string instrument, now the cable can behave like a string with its own resonance frequency and is excitable by certain frequency vibration? Does that in turn means that the number of supporting points can alter the frequency response? The mechanical and electrical interaction of this system is not trivial.

I tried to elevate my speaker cables with disposable cups and it made a sonic difference. Images were more forward than before and I could hear more detail, but I lost some musical warmth. So I removed the cups. If some one has a better mouse trap, let us know.
