Suggestion: Stick the dioder LED strips to the back of your monitor(s) so they reflect off the wall, and you don't have to look at them. I did this with my Dioder using some 3M mounting tape, and I really like the look of the light without seeing the LEDs.
I like it, much better looking after the cable management! I've got some cable management built in on the back of my stand but found I had to use quite a bit of velcro straps to get mine ship shape. I got 10ft of 1/2" velcro in a continuous strip from home depot and cut it down the middle to make 20ft of 1/4" which was more than sufficient. Couldn't find what I got, but there was another prodcut that could be cut to length as well.
Nice setup! I also have those ikea LEDs but mine have green and red streaks when on light colors. Are you experiencing someting similar?
