Any tweaks I'm missing?

... use your your technically unexplainable snake oil, just don't shove it onto the gullible here to make the big buck profits for the manufacturers you shill for.

I don't know what you mean by "shove it." People here should be free to post their experiences and thoughts here, in accordance with the rules of the forum.

When I bought ready-made solutions, some years ago, it always implicated a trade-off, a trade-off difficult to compensate for, because NO out of the box ready made product is a always a definitive solution, in the absolute sense of the word solution, for your ears, in the unique audio system of your specific and unique house and room...

But the good news is if you are confident in your own ears and stay firm in your hearing learning capabilities, you begins one step at a time, transforming your audio system, taking appropriate steps, with only cheaps materials, homemade solutions, you will go without apparent catastrophical trade-off towards an always improved experience with no down side... It is my history for the last years...

The reason for that is : all trade-off introduced by one experiment can always be compensated by another with homemade tweaks, not so easily with "definitive" industrial solution...

Remember that an audio system is the second thing that is the most particular, complex and sensible object, in your house; before, I hope so, your wife, or Alas! after her ... :)

A last remark, I use for example passive filtering solutions, because active one (with electronic components introduce trade-off difficult to compensate for and increase somewhere at the end the noise floor)...

In a word trade-off is the normal way in electronics, it is a concept linked to a basic calculus...It is catastrophic only when you cannot compensate for it with delicate and efficient remedy...Like in a bad wedding...


I wish you the best ...

I take umbrage at your suggestion that I am shilling.
I know none of the people with whom I have bought products.

Defamation or even the hint of it is unbecoming (in the guise of being clever or knowledgable).

And you have now questioned my intent, honesty, sanity, experiences and intelligence.
There's little left for you. Politics, faith and sexuality perhaps?

I wouldn’t worry about George too much. He aw, he aw, he always does that. 

Another thing Jerry, take a look at the amount of posts someone makes and on what type of thread. Some people have simply been here too long. They've become internet audio forum institutionalized. Once you've been a few rounds with those folks you either learn how to smile, understanding their stay is not about audio or music, or you get pulled into the drama only taking away from your own personal listening. 

One last thing, don't be shy about taking a breather from this place to shake off the bad vibes. I can usually stand it here about a month then a break is a welcome sight and sound.

I've been feeling that way for a while myself. 
There are other instances of the use of the word institutionalized that comes to mind. 😄

All the best,
