Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Good shielded cable should stop you from having to worry about separating cables. I have a "tidy" rats nest from my systems of I have notice ZERO difference cable dressing and rats nest configurations.

I'm gone.
- not for audio -
You have to cryogenically freeze them first.
I must admit that I can't see what is wrong with using the car accessory thingies linked in post 1 - 8mm holes would be fine for most cables.
But then ....
I agree. I recall tidying up my rat's nest of cables - I was really disappointed at not being able to hear any difference whatsoever.
So, it's just a free-fall free-for-all chez Jerry these days.
.
Only potential problem being - if you give credence to such - is these are made of metal therefore are magnetic.
I just dress the cables so no mains cable runs along side signal cables, if cables have to cross each other then its at right angles.
I think dressing cables well makes sense from a standpoint of being able to easily swap stuff out and see where cables are going. I also think running mains cables near signal cables could effect the signal cables, but I have never done a side by side comparison, so do it purely to be neat.
I know some folks are uber anal about this, even not letting cables touch walls, floors and racks - I am not one of those types.

I try to do that ever since reading about it here years ago. People who reckoned they could hear a difference if a cable was touching the wall or not. I mean, no, you almost certainly can't hear that, but it is a free tweak and not that hard to do. I draw the line at cable lifters, mind. Everyone has to have a line.

Keeping signal cables away from mains leads and equipment mains transformers makes sense. If you've ever used unscreened interconnect cables, you'll be aware that hum is picked up quite easily and although not necessarily audible with screened cables, it's possible that the mains influence could still be having an undesirable effect.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
Aye, not tried it either. If I was going to I certainly wouldn't pay money for the lifters. I mean it is very doubtful they do anything to begin with, let alone they should need to be made of rare African hardwood and cost £500 each. I have a speaker cable that goes across a thoroughfare anyway so to avoid creating a tripwire I would need to raise that cable up by six feet. That's not going to happen.
I have heard a very expensive system that used fancy cable lifters. It was, to be frank, shit. Probably not the fault of the lifters but it did occur to me that it was really not worth them bothering with such ephemera until they had the thing sounding at least acceptable to begin with.
