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

Haoleb, you asked above if elevation effects your sound and the answer is yes. At higher elevation there are less air particles and since sound is produced by the movement of air particles, your amps will be working harder to get your speakers to produce sound at higher elevations. This is more noticible in the lower frequencies since the lower the frequency the more air that needs to be pushed. I have not had any experience with this myself but one of my collegues ran into this problem. Of course when this happened to him it was in Mexico, City which is pretty high up there so the effects may not be as noticeable say around 2k to 5k ft.
10 Vibrapods of #5 under each Speaker.(200lb speakers) .
The speakers may wobble for a few days but will settle in . It really makes the tonal quality of the bass notes clearer.
I can vouch for the Marigo suggestion posted above. I found that the Marigo tuning bands on the bass and midrange driver baskets produces an even greater effect than the dots on the driver cones. I would recommend both. Actually I have these things all over the place. Walls, windows, driver cones, driver baskets, etc. They provide denser images, greater detail, and greater dynamics.
Clean all of the RCA connections. There are several commercial products for this, I like alcohol (grain) and Q-tips. (disclaimer: I own no interest in Johnson & Johnson)
