How do you dress your cables?

Sorry that last one was for Donjr.

Why? What problem does it cause?

Thanks

I say hi cables!!

Donjr, why not? What does coiling do or create?

Geoffkait, good idea.

Jedinite24, that's pretty much what I've been doing so far.

As for the rest of you, I do appreciate the laughs, but I really am looking for serious answers.

Good listening everyone

"How do you dress your cables?"

It depends on whether it's a boy cable or a girl cable.

Always in pink.

If the power cord I'm using is flexible enough of "S"ing or putting them in a figure 8 I will do so. If I knew I wouldn't be messing with the power cord again I would use zip ties. If I knew I was going to make changes I would tie them up with twine or use sturdier twist ties.

If the cable isn't flexible to put in a figure 8 or "S"ing I would just try to route them so they wouldn't be near interconnects. Since some of the power cables I have were also heavy I was forced to elevate them so that they would not sag from the IEC inputs of the gear I was using them with.

As for dressing them up you can buy all sorts of heat shrink and cable sleeving to make your cables look as pretty as you like.

By day; with pastel paisley chiffon with ribbons and tulle adornments.
By night; either leather or latex, typically from Frederick's of Hollywood.

You should never coil a power cord. Not when in use anyway.

I say "Hello, cables"!

Whoops, sorry I thought you asked how I address my cables.

NORTON!!

I don't. My butler takes care of those details.

my sole concern is creating too much stress on cables, any cable, especially where wire has a junction with plugs or connectors. my other pet peeve is separating cable runs as much as possible, so that when i have to change something, i am not pulling on 3 other cables along with the one i am removing.
If there is a company that sells flexible (yet sturdy) wires that sound really good, that would be a huge advantage over what i have now.
concerns over RF, etc. would seem 2ndary when there is no way to get these stiff, uncomprimising interconnects and PC's to stay out of the path of all of the OTHER interconnects and PC's.

I suspend my power cords from plastic hooks that are attached to the wall with damage free adhesive strips. A rubber band is used to suspend the power cord from the hook. This method isolates the power cord from vibration structural vibration and from other cables.
