Here’s another thread. Ideally, no cables should be coiled, running parallel or touching. Signal cables and power cables definitely should be carefully spaced apart. The rats nest behind the rack should look like an intentionally arranged 3-D wireframe
Cable Management Tips and Tricks
I’ve never really came across much information on cable management. Specifically I would like to know how to properly deal with excess cable length. Both with interconnects and power cables. I usually coil my extra length and secure with velcro. I’m not sure if this is proper, but not sure what else to do with it. Also would love to hear any other tips people have.

"Cable management"?? That’s that point in time when you got maybe the best system you have ever had. Then manage to read the Cable tab on the Agon site & realize, you probably outta just try one. 30 day return so...what’s the harm? So you go to the site and manage to order. But 1st, you think about it being snake oil and how they made no difference. But then you think......((stay tuned for tomorrow’s installment where we look at WTH???)) Actually I’ve been too lazy and this almost hit a nerve Good thread. |
I let the cables fall where they may and when they always do when they meet, try to make sure they cross at right angles. It helps to use some cut down piece of foam insulation that's used in electrical pipe conduits that you can get at any hardware store. Oh, and I keep by cables up off the floor using cheap measures. Nothing fancy is needed. All the best, Nonoise |
Command hooks or something similar that you create yourself are a great way to separate interconnects and speaker cables laterally along the back of your rack. Velcro strips work great in combination with this as well for keeping everything tidy and crossing at 90*. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Command-Hook-Large-Clear-3-Pack/289279730 |
