Does anyone sell a decent cable tidy!?? cos I cant find one!!

I'm looking for a half decent cable tidy solution to sit behind my new glass AV stand... the one provided was very flimsy and not up to the job. The problem is I can't find anywhere that sells them! I've found some farily poor plastic tubing on ebay but that about it! Can anyone point me in the right direction??

cheers

I think they sell something like that in Robert Dyas. Might be worth having a look.

or *cue cheesy voice* 'JML Direct!'

*uncue cheesy voice*

if you search online for cable tidy's, then you get some websites that sell almost everything, the skirting cable tidys, huge tubing etc.

Ahh a high end cable tidy?

I don't think there are any really. It's more on an Ikea thing rather than Bowers & Wilkins.

Maybe you can get some glitter or something?

I was looking for something a little fancy too but did'nt reallt find anything decent and just got some cheapo stuff in the end. Only thing I really found was Stands Unique cable tidy but its around £50 and mainly to go behind you hi fi rack.

I'm afraid you'll have to go to a glitter calibration specialist. It can be quite pricey but i'm told the results are quite dramatic, and pretty too!

have a look at https://www.wirecare.com/land_wraparound.asp

Similar sorts of cable tidys that you get with Bang & Olufsen stuff - a kind of spira-wrap type thing. Probably about as posh as you will get in a kind of non-posh way!!
