There have been quite a few threads involving this tweak but they would take some digging. It may be a good time to bring it around again. I am a believer in the idea, and have all my wires in air and not touching any others. The background will become quieter, the treble will smooth and for me the base tightened and was more defined. The theory I think is the same as for all wiring, that air is the best insulator. I know for me, and others who have said so here on Audiogon that if a power cord of interconnect ends up shifting against the wall of floor, the sound is less apealing. It's one of the first things I look at if my system sounds off. As far as how, there are as many ideas as people. I've often heard of paper and plastic cups used. I've heard of people use eggcrate, fish line, wood blocks..... Of course you can spend money on different products that are used for this. I personally have tried alot of ideas, I'm using cable ties to hang the wires when it's possible hang easiely. I use the old ceramic insulators from "Knob and Tube" (architectural salvage) wiring where I can screw it to something, and I'm using the old glass insulators from telephone poles (antique stores) for floor applications. Use your imagination, have fun, it's a simple cheep tweak that really works!
