What was your first tweak?


My first tweak( of the audiophile age)was applying green marker to the edge of my CDs, follwed soon after by the rubber discs that fit on the top outer edge of a CD.

Cardas speaker placement then rubber/spiked feet, green marker, tube rings, power cords, Porter Ports, Tone arm rewire in that order.
I liked a little more tracking force so I used nickles and quarters. Dimes just wouldn't do the trick!
Yes, nickels on the headshell seemed to be the right weight for my TT...anyone remember wedging a match book either under or above the 8 track while it was playing so it sounded right? Just loved the click to a new track right in the middle of the song while you were listening.
Speaker cable's. I know it's not considered a tweak now but in 1972 it was, friends and family scoffed and laughed at the high quality, thick cable that had no terminated ends just bare wire. There wasn't much of an improvement in sound quality but it was inexpensive and that was important at that time. Later on, a few year's after CD players came along, putting Black Diamond cones under and removing them from the player stopped everyone in their track's, audiophile or not. I still bevel cut and green pen the edges of the little silver devil's.
