I've done risers in both systems, one in a carpeted room, one is on tile. To be honest, I'm not sure I hear a significant difference, risers or no risers. Might depend on the cable you're using. Right now I'm using the Chinese Valhalla knock-offs. Very easy to just use the risers in one or two locations because of the stiffness of this ribbon type cable. I like what I'm hearing so I've left well enough alone. Plus I don't have the patience to do an extensive with and with out "riser test". So really inconclusive, but there's never been a cheaper experiment to try and see for yourself. Just grab enough cardboard that you can cut into several 4"x12" pieces. Then bend them in half to create an A-frame that's roughly 6" in height. Give it a shot. If you like what you hear, maybe do something fancier, but don't fall for the ridiculous prices some of the snake oil guys are asking for just a couple risers.
