I learned to drive in a '73 Chevelle with a 327 in 1987... my brother got the car for free as salvage and sold the engine for $1,000 and then used the car in a demolition derby at the PNE. I drove it in a later derby and it caught fire ... no issues at it had full safety gear... one of my favorite experiences ❤
I'm considering doing the following -- in the interest of science of course. Thinking about getting 6 of the cable lifters below and running my speaker cables through the handy cable loops and filling the insulator reservoirs with non-conductive and high thermal coefficient mineral oil. If I do this, I will report back.
If they make no notable difference, I'm pretty sure I can find another use for them.
**Of course, if @Jason Stoddard wants to donate to the cause...

OOoooOOoooOoooo...One can only dream of the incredible, indelible, inedible (but drinkable if you switched out the molten dampifiers with some thing more palatable to most folk) liquidity imparted by these devices.
As I mentioned to someone else recently, the area behind my combined HT/Music system in the living room is a rat's nest of RCA cables, power cords, power strips, speaker wire, ethernet cable, routers, power supplies, 12V triggers and relays to extend triggers, HDMI cables, DirecTV coax, multiple amplifier modules, 120V back light for the screen, and an entire family of dust bunnies with no effort whatever made to keep them apart. No hum, no added noise that I can detect, and everything sounds great. No "cable lifters," no tweaks other than power filters and surge suppressors, all OEM power cables. YMMV.
The 15-year Pappy Van Winkle is the best bourbon I've ever drunk. I even preferred it to the 20-year Pappy. They are not easy to find ... great choice, Bill.

"Proof" that cable lifters work:
Get a low-quality AM radio with a headphone out.
Connect it to speakers or headphones with an equally low-quality audio cable.
Run the cable over an interference source.
Turn on the radio and tune to a distant station with lots of hiss and crackle.
Now put cable lifters between the interference source and the cables.
Sound should marginally improve.
I’m of the opinion that anti electric car and green energy people either benefit from the gas, coal or oil industries or have been brainwashed by those in the media who do. And anyone who does not understand that the alternative fuel and energy industry is still in its early stages is simply choosing to not see the truth.
If you primarily drive on long trips where the recharge time would add several hours to your trip, liquid fuels are preferable.
If you primarily drive to work at 50 miles or less, rarely take long trips and are able to charge at home, electric is preferred.
Gasoline and diesel vehicles have improved in the last several decades. Older designs would have a very noticeable smell of fuel when their engines were warming up. Newer models still have higher emissions at warm up, but it is much less noticeable. Diesel emissions are much better than they used to be. Electric cars have also gotten better with range, power, and energy management. Gas vs electric is solid state vs tubes.

Creating a known bad situation in order to show that you have the "fix" for it is not proof of anything other than you figured out how to create a known bad situation. It is a typical tactic used by politicians, however.
