Blueswan: I think that you were right on target with the thread. There is a lot to be done after the cheap tweaks are out of the way. I have added Neuance shelving under the tube amp and CD transport with great results as well as a pair of the BMI Whale Elite PC's. Also the Kontak cleaner for tube pins and sockets and other connections is a very nice product (superior to the high grade alcohol that I was using before). It's kind of funny in that once a tweak works, it then becomes a necessity.
