  I won't bore the world with all the tweaks I have performed. The one that I have found that has always yielded results in all of my equipment is to replace the fuses in the components with ceramic fuses. Not exotic audiophile fuses - just generic "ceramic" fuses.
  
  I have been able to purchase the ones I needed from the local Sears Hardware store (not the department store). The fuses are in the trays where screws, nuts, and bolts are kept. It is quite possible these fuses nay be found at electronic or hardware stores.
  
  For a minimal amount of expense and effort this tweak has yielded miraculous results.

    What properties of ceramic fuses do you think improves the sound?

    What more reason do you need?
    
    HiFi Tuning Fuses are #1, and no I don't pay special attention to their direction (that should set Norm off :-)
    
    Ferrite blocks on power cables.
    
    Keeping all cables off the carpet.
    
    Mr. Clean magic eraser for stylus cleaning.
    
    Tube rolling
    
    AIVS record cleaning regimen
    
    For starters

      I asked my question because I know full well that there is no consensus.
