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!

These weigh about a pound.

I purchased one for my wife last year (anvil is cool/box is cardboard).

I've found Acme products to be very reliable.

 

I misunderstood your issue - thought you were talking about loose plugs.

I use lead bricks and spray paint them to my color "scheme." Added benefit is that with sufficient mass the component sounds quieter.

A well fed cat can do wonders,

But keep them off the turntable,
