Shanti DC cables: to coil or not to coil?

Shanti's DC cables are quite long: should I coil them or not? I fear coiling them would expose them to pick up induced currents. Thank you

You can coil them to a figure 8? Figure 8 crosses over at right angles, may not look neat, but since DC at these currents is pretty small, the field is not going to be a a problem even if you coil. Larger the loop the better, just for less mechanical stress, something like 10-15cm is OK.  Different if you had an AC power draw of 600A right next to the DC cables, then, but 99.9% of hi fi installs don't experience this level.
