Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend?

This is relatively expensive, but not in the context of other acoustic products for sale-Cathedral Sound Panels. For $179/pair, they make a big difference. I bought 4 pairs from Decible Gardens, who had a 20% off sale for repeat customers in July. Total cost to treat my room was $605. The last move I did today was to replace a bass trap that I thought was doing a good job in my problem corner(I already had 2 Cathedrals near the ceiling in that corner. The change that made was incredible! I tested it with Jackson Brown's, "The Naked Ride Home" cd(highly recommended). The increased detail coming from that corner put the bass trap to shame. Now there is some controversy about the Cathedral Sound Panels, including a useless graph claim. I bought before I heard about it. My suggestion to you is to try them, then decide. Doesn't one ASC tube trap cost $500-$600? I treated my whole room for that. One listen should be enough to decide.

Put teflon tape from ((WalMart)) around each of your fuse holders and on the whole glass part of the fuse and on all wiring inside your gear and on your ac plugs. This lowers the noise floor alot.........! A MUST TRY TWEAK...............................!

Hifisoundguy, very interesting. You know that the guys at MicroOmega think that insulation is of great detriment to sound. They would argue that putting teflon around anything is a no-no. But I will try what you suggest. How do you hold the teflon tape around the fuse?

Tgb, when you put the teflon tighty around fuse the teflon will stay on there. When you put the teflon on all these places leave it on there for a few weeks. With this tweak I'm hearing things in the music that were blocked before! GREAT TWEAK!!

Here's another great tweak.....us hook-up wires to replace those binding posts on your speakers and amps.....
