Seriously though, maybe the best tweak is exercise?

I posted, mostly in jest, before that cleaning your gear would yield fantastic sounding results. Yes, it was a joke, brought about by the fact that I thought the sound was better afterwards. Of course it was probably placebo ... but what if the actual cause is moderate exercise?

So, audiogoners, I challenge all of you to go out, put some bug spray on, and put your fancy iPhone or Android HR monitor to good use.  Then sit yourself and your sports drink down and listen.

Does it sound better?

I've been an endurance athlete pretty much all my adult life.  I did triathlons and distance races in my 30's and 40s.  Marathon was my best distance.  Now that I'm older I'm dabbling in ultramarathons.  I work 4 days a week and any day I don't work I hike or run at least 13 miles in the morning.  

Instead of energy drinks I'm generally having protein drinks in my listening chair but it is much easier to stay there and relax for a while after a good workout.
