How can I raise the height of the sound stage


My system consists of:

Quad 988 electrostatic speakers
Quicksilver V4 tube mono blocks
SAS Audio 10A tube pre amp
Cary Audio 303/300 cd player

THe sound stage presently is about 18" from the floor

Try different cabling.

I recently auditioned CT cables and they dropped the soundstage a good foot. Went back to my silver cables and the soundstage came right back up.
I agree with Fiddler. I have found that speaker cables have a significant impact on the shape and size of the stage. What are your speaker cables?
