Know of a "Dirt Cheap" tweak?


I am looking for tweaks to improve the overall sound quality of my audio system. I recently purchased some TPC contact cleaner and it made a believer out of me. I noticed a signicant improvement, as if a veil was lifted my system sounded more clear and transparent. Bass got tighter too. Do you know of any cheap tweaks that have made a SIGNIFICANT improvement to the sound quality of your Hifi system...let us know... :-) Comments welcomed!

I may be a wierdo, but I use clear plastic 4oz. "coctail" cups (think airplane beverage cart issue) with good results as cable suspenders. turn each cup upside-down, and cut a trough into the bottom of the cup. Make 8 to 10, and use it to keep the power, speaker, and interconnect cables off the floor. It is also not a good idea (in theory) to have cables pushed against a wall, as electrical fields develop in floor and walls, and having 3" of air between the cables and the flat, somewhat charged surface is a great insulator. Total cost, less than $5.
