True or False?


Many high-end manufactures deny the benefits of tweaking their components with upgraded power cables, fuses, etc. We all can agree that even the best speakers respond to room placement but is it true or not true in (your experiences) that the better your audio components are, the less they respond to various tweaks?

Tweaks are for idol worshipers. If it works, it is not a tweak but rather an essential accessory.
I agree for once with you...

I call them "embeddings controls"...

The more important embedding control is the acoustical one...So impactful that if rightfully implemented almost any upgrade is no more so "sexy" ...

The ratio S.Q./price is the only way to keep money and not throwing it to the hype wind.... For those of us like me less fortunate and more creative....

I never bought any "tweaks".... i prefer to create my own "embeddings controls" at NO cost or almost....

Not only it work but it make my maxim truer with time passing:  embed it all dont upgrade before....





Audiophiles have infinite hearing, allowing them to hear down to ever lowering "noise floors" that no manufacturer’s equipment can measure.
Incredible insulting and stupid "preaching" post about all "audiophiles" indiscriminately in a polemical narrow mind way...

Do you realize at which point you go astray?

And you pretend to rationality in addition.... Funny..... 😊
I’ve mostly thought manufacturers believed it was a good business decision to stay out of this endless often nasty debate. I do find it interesting to see what cables and tweaks they use at audio shows and their factory listening rooms. 
Room corrections are not tweaks in my view. That is room correction. Not a tweak to me.
Vibrations controls is possible at low cost, it is not a "tweak", it is an embedding control, not a secondary addition, a fundamental necessity...

Decreasing the electrical noise floor is possible at low cost also... It is not a "tweak" it is a fundamental necessity...


Room passive material treatment and ACTIVE mechanical control is not a "tweak" but a prime absolute necessity to hear our system at his optimal working peak...

"Tweaks" are most of the times pejorative qualification for the "supertitious" people who believe that their costly system can work optimally without any "embeddings controls" like in the publicity they read before buying them ... They bought it, plug it and boast about it ....

And before buying costly "tweaks" try to replicate them yourself at no cost.... Often it is possible...It is way more rewarding than buying....And more fun....

😊
FALSE, the cost doesn't matter. Tweaks are useless in an inexpensive, moderate or expensive system.
Are you born with innate audio knowledge?

Vibrations?

 High electrical Noise floor?

Acoustic?

That did not ring a bell in your cranium at all?

Stop calling that pejoratively "tweaks" and think about common sense solution .... They could cost nothing...
