Elevating line conditioners....


Why is it that line conditioners are recommended to be elevated off the floor.
I have also noted this in many system pics, the line conditioner is sitting on an alternative surface.

My guess is it should be treated like any other system component. It should reqiure a firm solid stable foundation for it to work properly.
Elevating components can reduce the effects from static buildup in the carpet.
I could tall ya more 'bout elevation:
How about elevating a listener? I guess that it's the best tweak so far... got that?
Many people elevate them because it looks really cool. My personal take on the issue is a bit different, however. I pose that doing things like this can also act as a psychological counter to a personal deficit or to something one cannot control. Yes, there are psychological explanations as to why audiophiles do seemingly bizarre things like elevating power conditioners.
