| Starting my showroom again Have you thought of visiting showrooms in similar-sized towns? You may be able to take the owner to lunch, to learn about what is working, and what to avoid. (As long as they don’t see you as a potential competitor.) Or, you may be able to iden... | |

| Different cables affect volume? (NOT sound quality} “What you pay attention to, expands.” Why not focus on a different subject and live with this? | |
| Is it possible to have too much/too many filters/tweaks? Sometimes “less” is “more.” You hear how tweaks interact, by living with them over time. When you have listened enough to be familiar with the resulting sound, challenge your ears by removing or repositioning a tweak. The possibilities are endl... | |
