RE: Incidentally

Uncle Stu,

I agree about IEC connectors but found Teflon tape too sound-damping for use with USB connectors that fared better with rubber o-rings to my ear.

Found that Teflon tape around the fuse holders and fuse of the CD/DVD player makes a substantial improvement and around the fixed wire connecting either end of the large fuse to one of the Samsung widescreen TV's circuit boards a lesser but noticeable enhancement. The rock-steady, eye-popping detail and saturated color of the series 'Rome' after all this is exceptional and even cable TV finally borders on impressive...the sound quality corresponds.

Consider the substitution of brass/ nylon for ferrous/ stainless steel screws to be the critical gateway through the distortion layer that otherwise blocks hearing more deeply into the music so placing other sound improvements beyond audible reach. My continuing thanks for your help in showing the non-magnetic way through...
