You know my wife has been smuggling a whole closet full of these speaker lifters. After reading this I confronted her. All she had to say for herself is If it would make me feel better she would sell them back to all of the audiophiles on here for half of what she paid for them. I think she said something like $200.00 a piece. So if any one is interested in them just send me a PM and I will send them right out. Oh, I do take Visa Discover or Master card. Shucks! All my plastics are full to the max except my American express   |

First saw this thread this morning, and it gave me a good laugh.
First I furrowed my brow (you got me), then I realized who had posted the thread.
Great work to put it all together with the photos, and all the thread puns didn't hurt either.

As the shoes are broken in, do their acoustic properties change?  |

A bit of humor around the myths is welcome, this thread is a fresh breeze.

geboo, How did you get into my wife's closet?  ??  Oh I now can take American Express. So far the only inquiries I have received is from a lounge member that wanted to know if my wife had a RED pair with 9" lifters . To get his wire higher off the ground but then he said they had to be a size 12 ? I don't get it?? |

Sorry to muscle in on your business but I am offering superior lifting devices in two different models: The Cinderella and The Dorothy lifters. The Cinderella is an elegantly shaped crystal lifter and the Dorothy utilizes ruby crystals to achieve its startling good performance. Both come with custom acoustic gel/sorbothane padding to absorb stray sound waves specially made for me by Dr. Scholl. They have the added benefit of making your room stink less, too (but they won't help poor recordings of stuff like from Kenny G or rap music.. those are gonna stink up your room no matter what). By the way, ELO sounds incredibly good when using the Dorothy model. I take all major credit cards as well. |

Great work to put it all together with the photos, and all the thread puns didn't hurt either. I was in the middle of my renovation and in the process of testing the OPPO 103, speaker placement, etc. It's Easter weekend so I figured what the heck.... APRIL FOOL'S! Note: Adult beverage had nothing to do with this. |

The Aussies are not happy, you didn't include our favourite cable lifters in the test;  The one single piece of leather used in each boot ensures a purity of sound unmatched by inferior designs. Cheers Gary |

I hate to break this to you, but those are counterfeit Dorothy lifters!!! You fell for the Hollywood Hokum; everybody knows that the original Dorothy lifters have to be silver. |

I listen to them over and over before going to my dentist to boost my tolerance level. ;D |
