Elevating cables off the floor is one tweak I have yet to do. Being that the GE cables are fairly large and heavy, any suggestions for a particular material to use? My original thought is to use wood pucks/blocks. Is there a preference for height or just getting them off the floor the main thing?
Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables
Now, this is not a advertisement, just a posting sharing my experience on some well made great sounding cables at a very reasonable price. Besides, I don't think Cerious Technologies is set up for a big influx of cable orders.
But, if you get the chance to try these cables, please do.
I have been interested in the newer cables coming out that are using Graphene as a conductor. SR cables seemed interesting, but I always hated the way there cables had all those extra wires (with the active shields and such). I then noticed an ad early in I think November or December from Cerious Technologies for Graphene cables. I investigated how the cables were assembled and it seemed like quite a laborious process.
I ordered (with a 30 day money back guarantee) the balanced Graphene interconnects, and boy did they impress me. Such depth, soundstage, realism, frequency smoothness, effortless sound. I was truly impressed! I now have a complete loom of the Cerious Technologies Graphene cables. That is; interconnects, speaker cables, digital cables and power cords.
I ended up selling all of my other cables and to those of you who have read my postings know that cables have always been my curiosity.
So, as I began this post, let me again iterate, I have no alliance to the company, my posting is for those of you looking for an great alternate high quality Graphene made cable without spending a fortune.

@ozzy Here's some info on the Groneberg: http://www.odysseyaudio.com/products-gronebergcable.html http://www.groneberg.com/english/ If you click on "Catalogs," There's a .pdf that talks a little about the cables as well. |
Hi t_ramey, I duplicated cable lifts like these out of hardwood and used Sterling Size 105 5" X 5/8" rubber bands from Amazon for the suspension: http://shunyata.com/index.php/products-vm/accessories/df-ss-detail Also adhered this constrained layer vibration absortion material to the bottoms of the wood wedges for additional vibration damping (not visible when the lifts are in place): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01KZ5X7KO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I cannot say whether I lost anything by using wood vs CF material (like Shunyata) for the bases, but I think that the rubber band suspension and damping material account for the majority of the improvement I hear, which is quite significant. The tension on the rubber bands can be adjusted to match the weight of the cables. A great sonic improvement for around $15 for each lift. Best to you t_ramey, Dave |
