Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend?

I find Canadian Club on the rocks works exceedingly well.
Just seems to make the dynamics pop.

Honestly, I think the cheapest tweak is to buy a better whatever component you're trying to tweak. Between the power cords, shelves, cones, blocks and other bullshit, you end up spending more than a better "whatever" in the long run. That aside, I really thought the Audience single-outlet power conditioner (ARp1?) made a really positive improvement in my system. About $300 and change used. I guess this is "cheap" in the world of high-end. I plugged it directly into the outlet and attached a $50 Wiremold strip to it.

Cheater plugs for your preamp and digital can eliminate a lot of noise on the ground line and are only a couple of bucks.

Psacanli, do you know of any good cheaters? I have made them out of two pin wall plugs from Eagle with a three pin female and silver wire. They were better, but could not compare with going into the wall plug part of power cables and lifting the ground.

Recently Synergistic Research took some Home Depot cheaters and zapped them (quantum tunneling they say). I compared them with ordinary cheaters which I bought. Wow, the SR ones were unbelievably better and better than my home made ones.

Incidentally, the Home Depot cheaters are 89 cents @.

Okay get off your butt and pick up the big cushion u were just sitting on. Now put it on a hard wood table thats in your living room and put your cd player on top of that.
WOW IT REALLY MAKES A GREAT ISOLATION PLATFORM. The glare is almost gone from my Toshiba dvd player, and I have 3D hOLOGRAPHIC IMAGING, along with deep extended bass. My sofa cushion is nothing special just your old run of the mill yellow foam pads found in old cars, or RV's,But it is almost 2 feet thick.
Onto another cheap tweak.Once u finish installing Deflex Panels to your internal speaker cabinents; Oh I guess that makes Tweak #2; #3 Tweak would be to stuff the remaining Deflex Panels in every bare piece of metal in your CD or Dvd Player depending on what u use for your musical source.
Now u have a cd player that sounds like 3k instead of $300.00
