1. Room Treatment and speakers positioning are very, very important. Room resonances must be eliminated at least partially.
2. A good subwoofer can greatly augment the pleasure you take in the music listening. Patience is required here though, because it's hard to integrate a sub into the room/system.
3. Listen to the music in the dark with your eyes closed.
4. Buy used components.
5. Give a chance to other music genres which you normally don't listen to.
