RE: Tidy wiring task.

That's a beautiful job. I'm happy I wasn't the one charged with doing that! It requires amazing organization and planning. Notice the color coded wires and many with labels. On the other hand, these cable bundling techniques don't always translate into audio gear since capacitive coupling can rear its ugly head.

Routing wire in an audio device has to be carefully planned too. You never want to run a signal wire parallel to a power supply wire, for instance; they cross at 90 deg. If you run a feedback wire too close to a signal wire or a power supply cable, for example, capacitive coupling can cause oscillation. Neat and tidy bundles look good in audio gear but don't always sound better.
