They were ok with me sharing.

Edit: Yeesh, no posts in this community for 4mo, then one admittedly mediocre setup pic and I get torn to shreds.

That seems like a whole lotta RF interference.

It probably could have been done with two power supplies.

They used staples to attach the cables.

Audio should not be crossed with power.

Power cables should not be coiled unless you want induction loops, lower efficiency, and waste heat.

Great points! I learned a few things.

Power cables should not be coiled unless you want induction loops, lower efficiency, and waste heat.

Ideally, the cables would be the minimum length needed as I understand it. For excess cables though, is there a better solution to organize it to avoid coiling?
