update; on Tuesday i removed the middle of three towel racks on each side so the middle part of the speaker cables are now resting on a Shunyata Dark Matter elevator, removing much of the float, but not eliminating it. the speaker cables are still attaining some degree of float near the amps and near the speakers. i also moved my tweeter settings back to wide open to make sure i have a good starting point.
since then just been listening and seeing where this is going. this might be the 'just right' place as my initial impressions are very positive. i'm getting the 'life' and 'action' but zero glare or etch. maybe the very slightest bit of tonal shift, but maybe none at all. where i'm over the moon is the subtle way the bass texture and energy is crazy amazing.
i'm just going to ride this horse for a time. no hurry......
one box of the Audioquest Fog Lifters did arrive, another should be here next week. i will use those to experiment with my interconnect layout.
Evolution Acoustics says: "These are probably some of the heaviest and largest cables in the industry with an extraordinary amount of copper."
no doubt. and agree that what 'floating' cables might do is very system/support relative. 'active' needs more care to work right. but i think the same principles do apply if you use any type of decoupling approach. cable management does matter, the more dynamic and high resolution you play, the more it's a factor.
and heavy or very stiff cables have more of an effect. this is an easy thing to try and then step back and listen. it might be that simple last thing to add a bit of life to what you are hearing.
