In Reply to: Cable lifters - Is it just me? posted by stehno on October 6, 2014 at 22:36:02:
In analyzing the change and the time factor, one thing remains certain, it ain't the actual wire which is changing. Rather, it is the interaction of the wire with the insulation, at least in my thinking (FWIW and YMMV and all that jazz)....
The actual signal carrying wire emits an EMF field and while it decreases with the square of the distance, the actual field can extend quite far. The big problem is that, in terms of human perception, we have no idea of how a numerical measurement (if indeed, it is the measurement we want) correlates to human hearing. Some people will be sensitive to it, and others, well, you red them before: its all in your mind and do you have any measurements to back what you hear....
A prominent cable designer once told me there are really only three parameters we can measure in regards to cable; Resistance, Inductance and Capacitance. Same cable, so resistance is the unchanged. So the parameters being changed must influence the other two factors. The magnetic and electrical field is penetrating the lifters, and the different materials must have different effects.
On the other hand, a softer material may be dampening the original cable better mechanically and of course this actually can affect the two remaining parameters (strands vbrating in respect to one another). Of course there may be other factors also in play
YMMV and FWIW
