Unless you want to believe or choose to believe that each and every tweak is an upgrade. If you're in that category of believers, you'd be a very busy man keeping your system up to date with the latest tweak. The problem in evaluating "tweaks" is observer bias. ALL of us are subject to it. Thus the opinion of any one person, especially a person who just paid dearly for the item under review or equally a person with a cynical outlook, is suspect.
Note the experience I related above, where an expensive boutique fuse replacing a no-name hardware store fuse made a decidedly negative difference installed where any fuse should have been totally inaudible. I "believe" that experience, only because there were five august audiophiles in the room, and all agreed instantly on the negative effect of the expensive fuse. Moreover, when we went back to the cheap fuse, the musicality of the TVC came back with it, so this was an ABA comparison.
