Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend?


Hey everyone, I am looking for some cheap tweaks, i just got done putting in a inner tube under my componets as an isolation device, and it works great. What else would you reccomend?..i am also thinking of an inner tube under the spkrs, with some sort of device to keep them stable. What do you think of Rf blockers..etc Please leave comments on your tweaks and how they turned out. i am looking forward to trying some. Thanks all

Once you hear the AudioPoints you will not go back to the non scientific stuff you are using.These work and are based on a law of physics so you will keep them and use them as you change and upgrade all the components that are improved by sitting on them.Its a very big improvement in resolution.I have thru the years used all the rubber and the weights and the clampers and the dampers and they all change stuff and they all were all non musical.
Place your more sensitive components in a lower postion in your audio rack. Units that are particularly reactive to changes in inertia such as a cd player or transport will become more focused have greater detail and deeper bass.The lower center of gravity will result in less error correction needed by the player with greater effective power supply stability..Tom
Remember everything makes a difference. A tweak is a keeper and not a deceiver. So said some 21st century non Shakesperian dilbert dude. Apply this platitude while horizontal to your hi-fi. Rememeber ninty degree angles are non musical where ever you are. Tom
I have the copper IEC's for my amps but have not yet put them in. They are pretty generic any way. Having new boards laid out for my amps that will have about 40% more copper content and will have them and all the parts that can with stand a double shock of cryo treatment. It's always something or something else.
I use those same cheap Furutech all copper connectors on my power cords they sound wonderful. Tom
Lacee,

There was a thread somewhere else and a guy was being pounded for building and selling an extreme power cord of some type. The fellow that was taking all the abuse indicated he had tried all the Furutech models and materials as well as other brands of the same sort and settled on the copper version as the best balanced sound. He described what each material presented when used with his cable design. Not as a discussion as to his design but rather to the pains that he went to auditioning the termination quality. The Furutech copper is treated in some fashion to reduce oxidation potential. I am now using these copper connectors and not the rhodium I used previous.
Mechanical grounding at these junctions will be my next step.Tom
