[Electronics-talk] labelling audio cables

[Peter Donahue]

Hello everyone,

    There's a suggestion I don't believe anyone has thought of yet. How 
about obtaining cardboard or plastic tags like those you tie to the handle 
of your luggage when you travel. In most cases these tags have all ready 
attached or come with elastic strings you can use to attach it to the cable. 
You could then Braille the cable name on the tag and tie it to the cable you 
wish to label. This would solve the problem of dimo labels falling off.

Hi,

I thank bothh you and the previous responder for suggestions, but
they sound more frustrating than ever. I think I will have to attach
braille labels as I have done in the past even though they may not
stay put for very long. I think I may have 19 pairs of jacks on the
back of the pre-amp. I have a list in the order in which they are
mounted. I just have not had to look at all that stuff for a long
time. I have labelled cables before, but the labels have not stayed,
for the most part. I think I'm currently using ten pairs of jacks. I
will leave the cables plugged into the equipment that attaches to the
pre-amp--for example, the connecting cable for a tuner. I don't own
any kind of labeler maker.
