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!

You can make your own HFTs for about $1 each instead of buying them from Synergistic Research for $300 for a 5-pack. HFTs are actually resonators, not transducers.

Use teflon tape (plumbers tape) to wrap around the outside end of power cords iec’s. This will make the iec a tighter connection and may also provide some damping.
