Melvin Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I have found that the ideal is to have someone, like a kid (not too tall) stand slightly behind and between the speakers and hold the speaker cables, one in each hand, during the listening session. This has the added advantage of providing some natural, organic room dampening. Ideally they should be wearing white gloves so as to not get any organic contaminants on the actual cable. Ask them not to breathe too heavily while performing this function as that can be distracting, particularly during the more delicate, quiet sections. Organic cotton is a must for the gloves (and all clothing honestly). Polyester fibers enhance and amplify RFI. Link to comment

Melvin Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Excellent point - thanks!! I did not know that. Also, whenever listening to music seriously, it is critical to wear rubber sole shoes only, otherwise, there may be EMI transference. .. and NO jewelry. Link to comment
Melvin Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I have heard toilet paper rolls make good lifters. And you never know when you might need extra TP!! Or use depleted ones (very green!). Link to comment

Melvin Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Not a big fan of either aesthetically speaking... Despite all of the snarky sarcasm, they do help to keep the pet hair out of the speaker wire sheaths and keep the cables separated. I love em just for the routing if for nothing else. Just havin' a bit of fun (The forum in general has been so effin serious lately.) Link to comment
