That's about as far as I can go without getting killed by my girlfriend. She beleives I spent wayyyyy too much money on a system (she's probably right, it would make a good start for a down on a house).
I'm looking for non apparent tweaks since I promised I would not change gear anymore (switching from Fidelio to Parsifal Encores is not a non apparent tweak by the way, I tried and I had to bring them back to the store!!!).
Not looking into changing amp, cd or speakers for reasons mentionned above.
let me just say that starting out your relationship saying that you won't, when you obviously know that you will, is a bad idea. trust me, after fourteen years with my wife, this is well tested bit of information. i'm always okay, as long as it makes sense to her... which isn't allways easy but i'll bet it's better than sneaking in some hidden tweeks that might lead up to questions later. in our house, everyone gets a hobby or two of their own. cheaper upgrades to consider would be things like isolation devices, power receptacles, a/c cords, wood or granit slabs etc. i've financed most of these tweeks myself, by selling off some of my tube collection or buy using my own enginuity to find a cheeper way. good luck young dude. -s.y.g.
