Cable Goop Review George is going to freak!!
Do not forget to not only treat PC connectors/plugs but also the connections between wire and plugs. The improvement after doing so was remarkable.

@theaudiotweak Do I understand correctly that you treat not only connections but soldering points and parts?

I like this album, beautifully played and recorded.https://www.gramophone.co.uk/review/rachmaninov-piano-concerto-no-3-boris-giltburgAnd now it sounds even richer and more lifelike. Like a dusty jewelry that has been freshly cleaned and now shines...

Hi, I have just applied NPS-1260 to all contacts on power cords, RCA cables, internal connectors of Amp and loudspeaker. I am missing fuses and digital cables.I can clearly hear improved texture, clarity and separation of the music.It is definitiv... 
High-pass line filter to relieve main speakers from low frequency
I‘ve done it - added a 47 nF Duelund silver cap in line at the power amp‘s input. I soldered between Eichmann bullets plugs and sockets, allowing quick removal. I dislike any modification that adds sockets, wires, soldering points, but there was n... 
High-pass line filter to relieve main speakers from low frequency
Thank you all, I suppose almost all aspects have been covered by your comments.Anyway, I bought a set of high-quality capacitors (Duelund JDM Silver Foil, 47 nF) and will insert them at the amp (input impedance 51 KOhm). I will report findings. 
Vintage MIT MI-330
Just for fun I have been comparing these cables to my own DIY recipe (helix design with Duelund 1 mm flat silver wire and Duelund 16GA tinned copper wire double runs around in helical turns) and a LessLoss C-Marc Cinch cable, and I must say the MI... 
High-pass line filter to relieve main speakers from low frequency
I think the improvement in sound quality is pretty subtle, but it does seem to have a bigger effect the louder I play the system. @jaytor Thank you for your feedback. Your observations would be consistent with the theory: the louder, the more ener... 
High-pass line filter to relieve main speakers from low frequency
Did you like the effects?I was planning to solder a Duelund silver cap 47 nF after the RCA input of the power amp. 
High-pass line filter to relieve main speakers from low frequency
Thank you, yes it does indeed - and I tested it. The thing is it is way much less transparent compared to the direct route. I suppose the signal is converted A->D, then back to A. Anyway it sounded kind of dull, and it was hard to judge whether...

Thank you for the guidance and encouragement, mahgister! I will next start with Helmholtz resonators. The golden plates are on the way, and I habe one SG so far. I think the swing base is around 1200 Euro.

Actually, there is a commercial solution called swing bases by Swiss loudspeaker manufacturer Sven Boenicke, however it comes at a price. It is esthetically more pleasing though and offers flexibility to reposition speakers.Anyway, I am looking fo...

I drilled four holes to the top of each loudspeaker case and inserted threads that take lugs. There are four ropes per speaker. Each speaker weighs 25 kg. At the ceilings, the four lugs are positioned wider compared to the top of the speaker.

I used 1 mm stainless steel cables. Maybe other choices could improve the results?

@cd318 Thank you for your kind words. After some time with the suspended speakers, I grew to like this setup even more. I can listen to music for hours without fatigue. The motivation to try this was: With suspension, loudspeakers can move freely ...
