How do you keep them organized? I can't keep them untangled and orderly worth anything. :(

Cable ties or clips... use the velcro ones...

If they're disorganised because you keep moving them, perhaps you should consider a 19" solution with patch panels...

Well..the offending cables are the ones that I'm not using. They're just sitting in a box tangled. Maybe some trash bag ties will do it.

Cable elevators.
According to audiophiles they make your wire sound better.

A mere $160 for 8. I'm sure you can spend much more.
"Elevate" your musical experience with the best cable supports on the market! You can gain significant improvements in the sound of your audio or home theater system by elevating your speaker and power cables off the floor. The improvements you will hear in detail and dynamics are not subtle. Many of you have already reported tremendous increases in clarity, tonal accuracy, and dynamics with Cable Elevators in place. Produced by a leading manufacturer of porcelain isolators, Cable Elevators are then coated with a non-conductive glaze to further reduce noise and a special non-slip foot for added stability with today's heavier cables. Cable Elevators are a simple, affordable tweak greatly enhancing the sonic presentation of your entire system and helping with cable management.

"The damn things do lower noise, increase dynamics, remove haze, and open up the top octaves. Once you listen to their effects, even a skeptic like me has to admit that it is hard to take them back out of the system. Music sounds more like music with the Cable Elevators in place. I recommend them strongly, especially given their price!" — Jonathan Valin, The Absolute Sound

Fold them about 2 or three times and tie a knot , you can then dump them in your box or hang them up on the wall.

Yes, but that solution only works if you use the grossly overpriced monster cables...

Oh the pain of it all!

In the world of the golden eared even the most expensive monster cable is considered substandard budget junk.

And that, is even more painful to come to terms with... Hell, I can't even tell the difference between balanced and unbalanced cables...

Well, maybe I could if the cables were 300 feet long.
