Physically awkward components...


I have a Bel Canto DAC and even though I really like it, its design is somewhat of a pain for me. I wish all connectors were on the same side of the unit, but they are not. Getting all the cables together is such a pain in the rear.

Anyone else have similar problems with other components?

HOw about the arrangement of the IEC, input RCAs and binding posts all on one side of the Berning ZH-270, with the IEC in the middle, separated by about 12" from the RCA on one side, and the binding post on the other? Have not yet figured out how to get speaker cables with spades hooked up on the right channel, w/o the positive passing above the IEC and the negative below. Talk about a conflict! And the little sucker weighs only 15 lbs- easy to pick it straight up w/ any heavy gauge cord. But it sounds terrific, so I guess all is forgiven.
Actaully, jsut was hooking it up, and the binding posts are in the middle. With heavy gauge speaker cables w/spades, the RCAs are in the way of the right channel speaker cable and the AC cord is in the way of the left.
