Know of a "Dirt Cheap" tweak?

I am looking for tweaks to improve the overall sound quality of my audio system. I recently purchased some TPC contact cleaner and it made a believer out of me. I noticed a signicant improvement, as if a veil was lifted my system sounded more clear and transparent. Bass got tighter too. Do you know of any cheap tweaks that have made a SIGNIFICANT improvement to the sound quality of your Hifi system...let us know... :-) Comments welcomed!

Oh, and one of my favorites, Nivea body wash. Rinses out ear wax.

Adding mass to smaller speakers, like exercise plates on top.

Blankets, pillows and tapestries can be useful experiments in room acoustics. Pillows especially around the speakers and on the floor, bean bag chairs, etc.

Best,

Mass. Adding weight to woofer enclosures may help definition. Bricks on top, whatever you have handy. :)

Especially good for 2 and 2.5 ways with the woofers closer to the tweeter than the floor.
