Cable Riser Install

Got my new cable risers built and installed. It cost extra but I sprung for the certified riser parts from Amazon.  :D

I will say they look better than the mason jars I was using before. Thanks for sharing the idea Danny. Sometimes simple just works!

So what do you think regarding changes in sound vs no risers?

I never thought I would be a cable stand guy. I have been using a few mason jars for a couple of weeks. There is a difference and it is noticeable. I don’t have the most revealing system but I have modified things to make the most of what I have. Overall I would say thing let opened up a bit and seemed a bit less constrained. I was very surprised but I noticed the difference almost immediately. It reminded me of the surprise I had when I upgraded resistors a while back. One of those when I wasn’t expecting anything but… there it is…. Improved.

I guess I will spend the rest of my life explaining to people why my cables are on Audiofile Tinker Toys  :D

Danny is correct, Parts matter, cables matter, the room is a hugely important, and get speakers off the wall. I would put my rather modest system and room up against most high end systems that are in a bad room. All of the knowledge shared is very much appreciated!

I guess I should share my set up.
Amp Camp amp monoblocks. Modified of course. About to rewire with better wire.
Elekit 8500 tube preamp with a few upgraded Mundorf Caps
Klipsch RP 5000 with tube connectors, Erse and Sonicaps and PE wiring internal
Blue sound Node steamer / DAC
Front wall diffusion, Bass traps, and first reflection absorbtion

Hoping some of the supply issues get resolved soon. Got my heart set on a set of NX Oticas 😁
