The Sort Lift addresses both. Its base is an anodized aluminum disk that inhibits the transfer of charge from the floor and discharges static build-up on the cable jacket. On it sits the Floating Spring System: support wings and tension wires of flexible titanium alloy, coated in FEP like a Nordost cable so the support behaves as an extension of the jacket rather than a clamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 12px\"\u003eThe result Nordost describes, and Kirk Midtskog of The Absolute Sound confirmed, is a lower background noise, more upper-frequency information, crisper transients and a more natural timbre, with the soundstage lifting and low-frequency detail improving. Alan Sircom of hi-fi+ found that removing the complete Sort set from a system made the soundstage fold in on itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 20px\"\u003eSort Lifts come in packs of two and are meant to be spaced between half a meter and a meter apart so that the cable never touches the floor; heavier, stiffer cables need closer spacing. They were designed for Nordost's flat cables but suit any speaker cable, power cord or interconnect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin:0 0 8px;font-size:16px\"\u003eKey
