I recently switched from wireless to wired headphones (Samson SR-850, probably the best for the very reasonable price) and my chair’s wheels instantly started eating its cable. Right now I’m using a small plastic hook that came with a face mask to keep it off the floor, but I’d like to hear other solutions.

    I used a coiled cable and put my audio interface to my side higher up on a shelf. That way when I am seated the headphone cable barely touched the ground.

    My pc is on top of the desk and the ports are on top. The cable just hangs down and it is sufficiently long to allow mobility even a bit further away. It is also short enough that it cannot touch the floor.

    Roll up the excess cable into a loop and sellotape the loop to stay in a loop. Maybe looks ugly but nobody else sees it lol.

    I don’t. When at home, Bluetooth speaker; (unless doing sound-critical stuff, of which I use my earphones) When on a move, earphones.

    The cable on the Grado SR60X and her siblings are comically long. They are pretty thick too, so I decided to braid them up, reducing their length from 2 down to about 0.6 metres. You can look up some easy guides on YouTube for this.
