How to prevent visitors from touching your system

It’s amazing, no matter if it’s your friends or just anyone else walking into your listing room, what is the first thing that happens? They have to reach out and touch something. Like this is the first piece of real equipment they have ever seen. Has anyone else had this experience? What can be done to prevent this except posting signs or telling people every single time? Gets kinda frustrating.

My wife won’t even touch anything, and I’ve offered to show her how everything works. She isn’t interested.

No visitor has ever even reached out to touch anything. This could be either my system is intimidating (lots of boxes and knobs) or we have different kind of visitors or both.

One of my teenage girls is interested in my equipment and she is only interested in digital, so I educated her as to how everything works.

I thought about putting up a few of those posts with rope that they use like in car shows for people not to go past them and not touch the cars. Lol 😂
