Mapeshade cable lifts or any cable lifts?


Do the cable lifts under speaker wire actually help improve the sound? My cables are wide ribbon Verbatim Cables. Thanks...Edward

So Griffithds, you can't hear anything either?
(JUST as insulting as your comment i guess, in it's own snide way)
Tweaks that cost nothing are not going to cost anyone to find out if they, in fact, can or cannot hear a result.
And just because YOU can't hear worth a damn*, does not mean no one else can.
*(or have equipment with enough subtlies to allow one to hear the difference)
Good luck
For another interesting (cheap) way to hold a cable off the floor i use a thin pure cotton rope woven back and forth in a simple loose pattern around the two wires of my 7 meter long Kimber Hero pre to amp interconnect. It holds the wires together both the width of the rope diameter apart, and off the floor the diameter of the rope, as the cable snakes it's way behind/over some other stuff in the way on it's route to the amp.
The rope was laying around too.
(If i would have bothered to dye the rope black it might have been less noticeable..
As for hearing a difference, you should try the tweak with some really cheap or free method before splurging for an expensive method of doing the tweak.
The free or nearly free method is almost always just as good as the pricey ones, just perhaps not as elegant.
It is true many peole do not think it is worth the bother. And also true many folks do not hear any difference. But to insult the people who do is insufferable IMO.
I've never heard the differnce between putting something between the cable and not putting something between the cable.
I've tried several inexpensive tweeks like that and I didn't notice any difference.
Some people hear the difference, but I haven't.
Elizabeth...just because I haven't heard a difference with or without them on MY system or the systems that I tried it on, doesn't mean you or I can't hear a difference on YOUR system. I'm disappointed in your fire breathing conclusion...perhaps this is the time of the month.
Not your response set me off at all. i found your response to be perfectly acceptable and reasonable. it was Griffithds response i was finding to be intolerable in it's snide way. So I apologize if you felt it was in any way aimed at you. as i was not.
Tweaks can be very system dependent.
But to have someone respond in the way Griffithds did is to insult anyone who finds they can make a difference.
And so i responded 'in kind' to his lack of respect.
Again, sorry if you felt it was also directed at your honest comment.
