Exactly Dave. Don't wind the cables too tight i.e. keep 'em loose wound and position them so nobody is able to step on them.

For myself, I try to use quality cables that have a lifetime warranty. I use some Monster (500 keyboard series and Studio Link) but have recently switched mostly to Mogami cables. They carry a lifetime warranty as well and are suppose to be a lot better than Monster.

To each his own but as the saying goes "you usually get what you pay for" or "junk in - equals junk out" probably applies to most electronic equipment, including audio cables. At least in my opinion anyhow.

All the best,
Mike
