These little guys are my input dual cables.

Forgive me for saying so, but that looks an absolute mess to me. And a very expensive one. It is mechanically and electrically precarious. You have cables hanging and criss-crossing all over the place and what looks like another piece of equipment very close.

Looks purdy to me

I have an Innuos Statement. You?

Very nice @Sampajanna! I don’t have a streamer as beautiful as an Innuos. Just a simple Roon Nucleus with an Sbooster 15-16v linear power supply. All it does is help me navigate through Tidal and Qobuz’ millions of tracks. I might add an Innuos Phoenix USB filter at some point, but right now I’m enjoying the music.

The tt2 and mscaler are on vibration spacers allowing for air gap. What do you use for cable organization?

My formula is based on spaghetti western back there. Best not to gaze behind just admire the front

Here I’m not shy, frankly sounds fantastic, looks like crap

The air gap might help ventilation, but surely only increases the mechanical strain in the BNC connectors, especially as the cables are loaded with many heavy ferrites. You have the cables laying over and running down the back of your K30 server which is stuffed full of processors and power supplies all of which will generate RF and noise. Other cables also run close. Doesn’t make sense to me.

Nick at Wave says as long as the cables are supported by shelf around 4" there will be enough support. The ferrites are to mitigate any rfi from the mscaler and server. I don't mind the mscaller and tt2 being side by side as Chord has built them to stack. Of course separating everything by at least a meter is better to mitigate rfi but I am unable to do this in my listening area. Can you give us a pic of your system and cable management to compare?

 

[Whazzzup]

I do have the ability to separate my DX, on a separate end table, granted my rooter right underneath, so far nary a problem

 

[JTbbb]

This is the way to do it .

Beautiful

There are more problems with induced currents when cables are parallel and close. Less if they criss cross. Of course there is the waf if they are not seen at all. I rather like to show off the Wave cables. Almost all of todays cables have enough insulation and shielding to make induction a non factor especially at the levels in audio.

 

[Whazzzup]

that’s the spaghetti that I’m talking about

Lovely jubbly!

Custom made cable holder with an isolator base …. Spare amp heat sink in between I had lying around …. Can’t hurt ?
Photo shows it needs a good dust ..
