cable wraps or something similar... twist ties or zip straps can help things from getting tangled... whatever you do, don't loop up excess solid core wires (RCA or COAX) because this basically creates an antenna and introduces interference

well really i dont use rca or coax. i have 2 optical 2 hdmi 4 power cables cable going to cable and lots of speaker wire i probably gonna have to cut a lot of my speaker cables down a bit.

Keep the cables as far apart as is reasonbly possible, and keep the power cables away form the signal cables. Try not to run them in parallel to each other, and cross them at 90 degrees if you can.
