ATS and GIK acoustics, Mogami Gold Neglex Quad XLR cables

The biggest bang for the buck so far has been DIY built-in acoustic treatments. But I don't think DIY was in the spirit of your post, so I'm going to vote for acoustic treatments from ATS Acoustics and GIK Acoustics. I have products from both companies in multiple rooms of my house, and they both represent awesome value. I cringe when I see pictures of expensive systems in shitty rooms with egg crate foam on the walls and other half-assed attempts at room treatment. ATS and GIK are the most economical suppliers of effective off the shelf acoustic treatments that I know of.

My #2 answer is the relatively inexpensive Mogami star-quad XLR cables. These are marketed as microphone cables, but are really good as interconnects, especially over longer runs. In my systems, these have bettered mid-priced interconnects from Cardas, Kimber, Audioquest, Luminous Audio, and Tellurium Q. I use them in my HT system, and I've used them on and off in my 2ch system.
