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!

$4.99 at Party City.   Much more if sold here.

MY wife re-arranged the furniture in her cathedral ceiling sun-room.

What a tweak! Now it sounds exactly the way it should!

There is now a rattan sofa between the OHM Walsh speakers along the wall and fairly close to corners that is 70% windows. Imaging and soundstage has improved dramatically.

She did this of course for reasons other than sound quality but stumbled onto a good sound tweak in the process.

The OHMs continue on Auralex subdude platforms which is key for taming the bass resulting from floor interactions in that room which is tile over suspended plywood floors, a sonic disaster to start with.

What a woman!
