Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend?

After about 2 hours of fresh air, I feel like I've been tranported to a dream land. Doctors recommend this daily dosage as well. Music is more beautiful when you are feeling good and healthy. AS a song reminds us, " ... the answere lies in the wind, my friend..."

Turntable.

2- 18 in quarry tiles- Home depot
10 #27 rubber o-rings- Home Depot
1- 12 in childs bicycle inner tube- Wal Mart

Arrange the rings in any pattern you please on your shelf, then place the first tile on it. Inflate the innertube to firm but not absolutely stiff, center in the middle of the tile and place tile #2 on it.

Center tt on tile #2. Play bass heavy music and marvel !!! I was convinced I needed a new stylus (B&O MMC5). This saved me the Mega $$$$$ it would take to pack up the TT and ship it to the B&O store in Dallas for replacement and installation.

total cost - 15 dollars

Happy Listening

Just one Jena Labs cryo-treated 20amp IEC connector on the amp end of my Foundation Research LC-2 in-line power conditioner provided fascinating improvements at both the micro- and macro-dynamic levels.

I read some good things about various cd mats. Marigo Labs has just brought out a new version of their mat so I gave it a try.
I have been using it for a week and I am amazed that a $90 cd mat with some holes cut out in it (I have no technical expertise)can make such a huge difference in the quality of sound I am hearing.
I liked my system very much before the mat arrived. However, the improvements have been striking.The music has lost whatever edginess there was, the sound is richer,fuller and warmer, each instrument is better defined and more realistic. If I close my eyes I would say that jazz vocalists are in the room singing to me.
