I replaced a MP40 with a Nero 7. The power adapter is huge. Currently, the cord/power adapter is suspended inside the stand using some 3M cable ties. Not very photogenic but works for now. I'd like to mount the power adapter inside the stand (3/4" plywood) or hide it. Curious how others are managing to mount or hide power adapters in an overall cable management solution.

Personally on the dry side of my stand. I have all the power adapters Velcro to the top, inside the stand. This way they are tucked up tight and out of sight. I also use Velcro zip ties since they are so much easier to remove if you need to do something. I also use the outdoor heavy duty Velcro so they stay attached. When I was looking at methods last year. I came across a couple sellers on eBay who actually sell brackets for them. I didn’t end up going that route since I didn’t want to screw them in and decided it was better for me to just Velcro them up. I don’t have a picture of them but at least in this picture you can’t see them lol

Weird, not sure why that picture posted sideways since it’s not like that but at least you get the idea.
