Keep light equipment from tipping up from cable weight?


I have some lighter audio equipment that get easily overweighed down by weight of cables plugged into the back of it. What techniques do yall employ to keep lighter weight audio equipment (speaker switchers, VU meters, small DACs) from having their fronts tip upwards do to the weight of cables behind them?

 

Thank you in advance!

Blue tack on the feet of your light equipment. Available at any hardware store and most groceries. 

I had a very light component in my system once and built a support structure for the cable out of, of all things, Tinker Toys.  I know it sounds bizarre but it did the job!

Double-faced tape on the feet, zip ties (in a range of 'attractive colors'....

I've a couple of items that suffer from the noted, but have been able to tuck them under or behind cables that keep them stable...

...and there's always Blu-Tak....

Gift wrap a brick....

I just put a box of ammo on top.  Heavy and dense, they keep everything in it's place.

A chunk of whatever is lying about wrapped in electrical tape. The tape prevents unwanted scuffing of the equipment.

There are a variety of colors of electrical tape available for those with O.C.D.
